Blue Quote by Dante Gabriel Rossetti

“Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragon-fly Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky: So this winged hour is dropt to us from above. Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower, This close-companioned inarticulate hour When twofold silence was the song of love.” quote by Dante Gabriel Rossetti — Download Open image
