Yellow Banners

Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or banners:

    iris and lilac, birds
    birds, yellow flowers
    white flowers, the Diesel
    does not let up dragging
    the plow
    Charles Olson (1910–1970)

    The trumpets sound, the banners fly,
    The glittering spears are ranked ready;
    The shouts o’ war are heard afar,
    The battle closes thick and bloody;
    But it’s no the roar o’ sea or shore
    Wad mak me langer wish to tarry;
    Nor shout o’ war that’s heard afar,
    Its leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)
