Ash Trees

Famous quotes containing the words ash and/or trees:

    Of the crow-blue mussel shells, one keeps
    adjusting the ash heaps;
    opening and shutting itself like

    an
    injured fan.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    Society is all but rude,
    To this delicious solitude.

    No white nor red was ever seen
    So amorous as this lovely green.
    Fond lovers, cruel as their flame,
    Cut in these trees their mistress’ name:
    Little, alas, they know or heed
    How far these beauties hers exceed!
    Fair trees, wheresoe’er your barks I wound,
    No name shall but your own be found.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
