Bare Ground

Famous quotes containing the words bare and/or ground:

    Let us be unashamed of soul,
    As earth lies bare to heaven above!
    How is it under our control
    To love or not to love?
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    On every tree a bucket with a lid,
    And on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow.
    The sparks made no attempt to be the moon.
    They were content to figure in the trees
    As Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades.
    And that was what the boughs were full of soon.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
