Red Rocks

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or rocks:

    “O land and soil, red soil and sweet-gum tree,
    So scant of grass, so profligate of pines,”
    —Jean Toomer (1894–1967)

    “—the dark ajar, the rocks breaking with light,
    and undisturbed, unbreathing flame,
    colorless, sparkless, freely fed on straw,
    and, lulled within, a family with pets,
    —and looked and looked our infant sight away.”
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
