Eyed Tree Frog

Famous quotes containing the words eyed, tree and/or frog:

    This morning, there flew up the lane
    A timid lady-bird to our bird-bath
    And eyed her image dolefully as death;
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    the scythers, Time and Death,
    Helmed locusts, move upon the tree of breath;
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    What a wonderful bird the frog are—
    When he stand he sit almost;
    When he hop, he fly almost.
    He ain’t got no sense hardly;
    He ain’t got no tail hardly either.
    When he sit, he sit on what he ain’t got almost.
    —Unknown. The Frog (l. 1–6)
