Falling

Famous quotes containing the word falling:

    Can I see a falling tear,
    And not feel my sorrow’s share?
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    Life stood on the top stair a moment
    Waved her last gray slander down the stair,
    I will not forget her absent eyes
    Her other smile like one rose
    Falling, falling everywhere....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    I dreamed that I stood in a valley, and amid sighs,
    For happy lovers passed two by two where I stood;
    And I dreamed my lost love came stealthily out of the wood
    With her cloud-pale eyelids falling on dream-dimmed eyes....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
