Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or pine:

    The paired butterflies are already yellow with August
    Over the grass in the West garden;
    They hurt me. I grow older.
    Li Po (701–762)

    For a hundred and fifty years, in the pasture of dead horses,
    roots of pine trees pushed through the pale curves of your ribs,
    yellow blossoms flourished above you in autumn, and in winter
    frost heaved your bones in the ground—old toilers, soil makers:
    O Roger, Mackerel, Riley, Ned, Nellie, Chester, Lady Ghost.
    Donald Hall (b. 1928)
