Moon Lay

Famous quotes containing the words moon and/or lay:

    As far as I can see, this autumn haze
    That spreading in the evening air both ways
    Makes the new moon look anything but new
    And pours the elm-tree meadow full of blue,
    Is all the smoke from one poor house alone....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The great ship, Balayne, lay frozen in the sea.
    The one-foot stars were couriers of its death
    To the wild limits of its habitation.
    These were not tepid stars of torpid places
    But bravest at midnight and in lonely spaces,
    They looked back at Hans’ look with savage faces.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
