Green Ash

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or ash:

    Of a green evening, clear and warm,
    She bathed in her still garden, while
    The red-eyed elders watching, felt

    The basses of their beings throb
    In witching chords, and their thin blood
    Pulse pizzicati of Hosanna.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Greasing the bodies of adulterers
    Like Hiroshima ash and eating in.
    The sin. The sin.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
