Famous quotes containing the word summer:
“Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car,
And driven the hamadryad from the wood
To seek a shelter in some happier star?
Hast thou not torn the naiad from her flood,
The elfin from the green grass, and from me
The summer dream beneath the tamarind tree?”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“Does he lie there
forever, where his rifle waits, giant
and straight? . . . I think you die again
and live again,
Johnny, each summer that moves inside
my mind.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“The woods decay, the woods decay and fall,
The vapours weep their burthen to the ground,
Man comes and tills the field and lies beneath,
And after many a summer dies the swan.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
