ANNA KATHARINE GREEN
American novelist
(1846 - 1936)

As timid violets lade the ambient air
  With their heart's richest fragrance, unaware
    The fragrance whispers that the flower is there.
      - [Flowers]

He who steps on stones is glad to feel
  The smallest spray of moss beneath his feet.
      - [Sympathy]

The free
  Mighty, music-haunted sea.
      - [Ocean]

The very shadows seem to listen.
      - [Shadows]

The very stars
  Tremble above, as though the Voice Divine
    Reverberated through the dread expanse.
      - [Stars]

There are two kinds of artists in this world; those that work because the spirit is in them, and they cannot be silent if they would, and those that speak from a conscientious desire to make apparent to others the beauty that has awakened their own admiration.
      - [Art]

Hath the spirit of all beauty
  Kissed you in the path of duty?
      - On the Threshold [Duty]
