Brown Meal

Famous quotes containing the words brown and/or meal:

    Oh, little brown girl, born for sorrow’s mate,
    Keep all you have of queenliness,
    Forgetting that you once were slave,
    And let your full lips laugh at Fate!
    Gwendolyn B. Bennett (1902–1981)

    Bid a strong ghost stand at the head
    That my Michael may sleep sound,
    Nor cry, not turn in the bed
    Till his morning meal come round;
    And may departing twilight keep
    All dread afar till morning’s back....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
