May Sarton Quotes

In Texas There's So Much Space Words Have A Way
Of Getting Lost In The Silence Before They're Spoken
So People Hang On A Long Time To What They Have To Say;
And When They Say It The Silence Is Not Broken,
But It Absorbs The Words And Slowly Gives Them
Over To Miles Of White-gold Plains And Grey-green Hills,
And They Are Part Of That Silence That Outlives Them.
