HMS Black Swan

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or swan:

    In the black of desire
    we rock and grunt, grunt and
    shine

    Love that had robbed us of immortal things,
    This little moment mercifully gave,
    Where I have seen across the twilight wave
    The swan sail with her young beneath her wings.
