Fourth Red

Famous quotes containing the words fourth and/or red:

    “And he was lost among the waves,
    His ship rolled helpless in the sea,
    The fourth month of his voyage
    He shouted grievously
    “Beloved, do not think of me.””
    —Alun Lewis (1915–1944)

    “The poppy that my heart was,
    formed to bind all mortals,
    made to strike and gather hearts
    like flame upon an altar,
    fades and shrinks, a red leaf
    drenched and torn in the cold rain.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
