Famous quotes containing the word dries:

The earth burns brown.

Earth wears a dun-colored dress
like an old woman wooing the sun to be her lover,
be her sweetheart and her husband bound in one.”
—Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)

“Here love’s damp muscle dries and dies,
Here break a kiss in no love’s quarry.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“The big toad sits in my writing room
preventing me from writing. I am a flower
who dries out under her hot breath.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
