Year Green Hunters

Famous quotes containing the words year, green and/or hunters:

    It had been cold since December. Snow fell, first,
    At New Year and, from then until April, lay
    On everything. Now it had melted, leaving
    The gray grass like a pallet, closely pressed;
    And dirt. The wind blew in the empty place.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    And nothing I cared, at my sky blue trades, that time allows
    In all his tuneful turning so few and such morning songs
    Before the children green and golden
    Follow him out of grace.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Runs falls rises stumbles on from darkness into darkness
    and the darkness thicketed with shapes of terror
    and the hunters pursuing and the hounds pursuing
    and the night cold and the night long and the river
    to cross and the jack-muh-lanterns beckoning beckoning
    and blackness ahead
    Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)
