Dark

Famous quotes containing the word dark:

“It is enough
To smell, to crumble the dark earth,
While the robin sings over again
Sad songs of Autumn mirth.”

little field mice nestling on their paws?
Perhaps they will say nothing,
perhaps they will be dark and leaden,
having played their own game
somewhere else....”

Playing till too dark to see,
As their fathers watched them once,
As my father once watched me;”
