Copper Colour

Famous quotes containing the words copper and/or colour:

“He had put, within his reach,
A box of counters and a red-veined stone,
A piece of glass abraded by the beach,
And six or seven shells,
A bottle with bluebells,
And two French copper coins, ranged there with careful art,”
—Coventry Kersey Dighton Patmore (1823–1896)

“The tears I shed
weren’t bitter things,
so ice-floes in spring
touched by the sun,
show colour of flowers.”
