Snow Parson

Famous quotes containing the words snow and/or parson:

“The snow far off on the pine
nesting into the needles
like addicts into their fix.
The mailbox as stiff as a soldier
but wearing a chef’s hat.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“‘Dear Captain Smith,’ the ghost replied, ‘you’ve used me ungenteelly.
The crowner’s quest goes hard with me because I’ve acted frailly,
And Parson Biggs won’t bury me, though I am dead Miss Bailey.’”
—George Colman (1762–1836)
