Meadow Quote by Charles Wright
““At dawn, in the great meadow, a solitude As easy as white paint comes down from the mountains To daydream, bending the grass. I take my body, familiar bundle of sorrows, to be Touched by its hem, and smoothed over . . . There's only one secret in life that's worth knowing, And you found it. I'll find it too.””
