Apple Blossom White

Famous quotes containing the words apple, blossom and/or white:

    Your apple face, the simple crèche
    Of your arms, the August smells
    Of your skin. Then I sorted your clothes
    And the loves you had left, Elizabeth,
    Elizabeth, until you were gone.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Where the bee sucks, there suck I,
    In a cowslip’s bell I lie;
    There I couch when owls do cry.
    On the bat’s back I do fly
    After summer merrily.
    Merrily, merrily shall I live now,
    Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Why do we then shun death with anxious strife?
    If Light can thus deceive, wherefore not Life?
    —Joseph Blanco White (1775–1841)
