Winter Migratory Birds

Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or birds:

    These are the small townsmen of death,
    A man and a woman, like two leaves
    That keep clinging to a tree,
    Before winter freezes and grows black....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Calico Pie,
    The little Birds fly
    Down to the calico tree,
    Their wings were blue,
    And they sang “Tilly-loo!”
    Till away they flew—
    And they never came back to me!
    Edward Lear (1812–1888)
