Clam Falls

Famous quotes containing the words clam and/or falls:

    “Over the low, barnacled, elephant-colored rocks,
    Come the first tide-ripples, moving, almost without sound, toward
    me,
    Running along the narrow furrows of the shore, the rows of dead clam shells;”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    as a hyacinth,
    hidden in a far valley,
    perishes upon burnt grass.”
