Poem Wordsworth

Famous quotes containing the words poem and/or wordsworth:

    With this pen I take in hand my selves
    and with these dead disciples I will grapple.
    Though rain curses the window
    let the poem be made.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    What though the radiance which was once so bright
    Be now for ever taken from my sight,
    Though nothing can bring back the hour
    Of splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower;
    We will grieve not, rather find
    Strength in what remains behind.
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
