William Carlos Williams

“It is at the edge of the petal that love waits”

“This is Just to Say I have eaten the plums that were in the icebox and which you were probably saving for breakfast Forgive me they were delicious so sweet and so cold”

“beauty’ is related not to ‘loveliness’ but to a state in which reality plays a part.”

“Time is a storm in which we are all lost.”

“Sun benches at the curb bespeak another season, truncated poplars that having served for shade served also later for the fire.”

“Your thighs are appletrees. Your knees are a southern breeze.”
