“Mrs Guinea answered my letter and invited me to lunch at her home. That was where I saw my first finger-bowl. The water had a few cherry blossoms floating in it, and I thought it must be some clear sort of Japanese after-dinner soup and ate every bit of it, including the crisp little blossoms. Mrs Guinea never said anything, and it was only much later, when I told a debutant I knew at college about dinner, that I learned what I had done.”

“ای مهربان تر از برگ در بوسه های باران بیداری ستاره در چشم جویباران آیینه ی نگاهت پیوند صبح و ساحل لبخند گاه گاهت صبح ستاره باران بازآ که در هوایت خاموشی جنونم فریاد ها برانگیخت از سنگ کوه ساران ای جویبار جاری! زین سایه برگ مگریز کاین گونه فرصت از کف دادند بی شماران گفتی: به روزگاران مهری نشسته گفتم بیرون نمی توان کرد حتی به روزگاران بیگانگی ز حد رفت ای آشنا مپرهیز زین عاشق پشیمان سرخیل شرمساران پیش از من و تو بسیار بودند و نقش بستند دیوار زندگی را زین گونه یادگاران وین نغمه ی محبت بعد از من و تو ماند تا در زمانه باقی ست آواز باد و باران”
