Wild Herbs

Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or herbs:

    “Her mane falls wild on her forehead,
    And the light breeze moves me to caress her long ear
    That is delicate as the skin over a girl’s wrist.
    Suddenly I realize
    That if I stepped out of my body I would break
    Into blossom.”
    —James Wright (1927–1980)

    “I, in my pleached garden, watched the pomp,
    Forgot my morning wishes, hastily
    Took a few herbs and apples, and the Day
    Turned and departed silent. I, too late,
    Under her solemn fillet saw the scorn.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
