Heavenly Stems

Famous quotes containing the words heavenly and/or stems:

    See, Winter comes, to rule the varied year,
    Sullen, and sad, with all his rising train;
    Vapours, and clouds, and storms. Be these my theme,
    These, that exalt the soul to solemn thought,
    And heavenly musing. Welcome, kindred glooms!
    Congenial horrors, hail!
    James Thomson (1700–1748)

    Let me walk through the fields of paper
    touching with my wand
    dry stems and stunted
    butterflies....
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
