Quote #2

I know the colour rose, and it is lovely, But not when it ripens in a tumour.

More from Dannie Abse

  1. Praying is another way of singing. You plant in the tree the soul of lemons. You plant in the gardens the spirit of roses.
  2. Leave my soul alone, leave my soul alone
  3. And silence matched the silence under snow.
