Warden Trees

Famous quotes containing the words warden and/or trees:

    Just across the Green from the post office is the county jail, seldom occupied except by some backwoodsman who has been intemperate; the courthouse is under the same roof. The dog warden usually basks in the sunlight near the harness store or the post office, his golden badge polished bright.
    —Administration for the State of Con, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    an endless wind
    Whips at the headstones of the dead and wails
    In the trees for all who have and have not sinned.
    Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)
