Stained Glass Windows

Famous quotes containing the words stained, glass and/or windows:

    And like a little beast,
    Dappled and without horns,
    That scampered on the hill-rocks,
    They will leave you
    With stained throat
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    The awaited scream rises,
    the shattering
    of glass and the cracking
    of bone
    a polar tumult as when
    black ice booms....
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    The house of my body has spoken
    often as you rebuild me like blocks,
    and promise to come visit
    when I’m finally adjusted on safe land,
    and am livable, joist to joist
    with storm windows and screens ...
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
