Famous quotes containing the words wooden and/or crow:
“Two wooden tubs of blue hydrangeas stand at the foot of the stone steps.
The sky is a blue gum streaked with rose. The trees are black.
The grackles crack their throats of bone in the smooth air.
Moisture and heat have swollen the garden into a slum of bloom.
Pardie! Summer is like a fat beast, sleepy in mildew....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Only brooms
Know the devil
Still exists,
That the snow grows whiter
After a crow has flown over it,”
—Charles Simic (b. 1938)
