Famous quotes containing the word flowers:
“The forest waves, the morning breaks,
The pastures sleep, ripple the lakes,
Leaves twinkle, flowers like persons be
And life pulsates in rock or tree.”

But was she not lucky? In flowers and lace and mourning,
In love and great honor we bade God rest her soul
After six little spaces of chill, and six of burning.”

Strew’d flowers upon the barren way,
Making the wintry world appear
Like one on whom thou smilest, dear.”
