Alice Hoffman Quotes
It Was The Farm They'd Bought Down At The Edge Of The Cape ... The Very Edge Of The World, ... It Was The Light That Emma Remembered As So Very Different From City Light, Thin And Yellow, With Flecks Of Gold As The Afternoon Stretched On. Apricot Light, Her Mother Used To Call It. Peach Light. Summertime Light That Made A Person Forget Gray Skies And City Life. The Air Was Sweeter There, The Cardinals Were A Deeper Scarlet Than Their City Cousins, And When The Crickets Called, It Was Possible To Feel The Vibration Of Their Song. Each Time They Opened The Car Doors And Crossed The Grass, It Was As Though They Had Stepped Off The Globe, As Though The World Had Stopped Turning, As Though They Might, For A Little While At Least, Be Safe.
