Fairies Dancing

Famous quotes containing the words fairies and/or dancing:

    As I went forth early on a still and frosty morning, the trees looked like airy creatures of darkness caught napping; on this side huddled together, with their gray hairs streaming, in a secluded valley which the sun had not penetrated; on that, hurrying off in Indian file along some watercourse, while the shrubs and grasses, like elves and fairies of the night, sought to hide their diminished heads in the snow.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    My Mama has made bread
    and Grampaw has come
    and everybody is drunk
    and dancing in the kitchen
    Lucille Clifton (b. 1936)
