Warm Spring

Famous quotes containing the words warm spring, warm and/or spring:

    ... his voice and hands,
    Within whose warm spring rain of loving care
    Each dwells some twenty seconds. Now, dear child,
    What’s wrong, the deep American voice demands,
    And, scarcely pausing, goes into a prayer
    Directing God about this eye, that knee.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    I see slip to the curb the long machines
    Out of whose warm and windowed rooms pirouette
    Shellacked with silk and light
    The hard legs of our women.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    When the storm rattles my windowpane
    I’ll stay hunched at my desk, it will roar in vain
    For I’ll have plunged deep inside the thrill
    Of conjuring spring with the force of my will,
    Coaxing the sun from my heart, and building here
    Out of my fiery thoughts, a tepid atmosphere.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
