Lost Rose Bowl

Famous quotes containing the words lost, rose and/or bowl:

    Seeing myself well lost once more, I sighed,
    “Where, where in Heaven am I? But don’t tell me!
    O opening clouds, by opening on me wide.
    Let’s let my heavenly lostness overwhelm me.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    There has fallen a splendid tear
    From the passion-flower at the gate.
    She is coming, my dove, my dear;
    She is coming, my life, my fate;
    The red rose cries, ‘She is near, she is near;’
    And the white rose weeps, ‘She is late;’
    The larkspur listens, ‘I hear, I hear;’
    And the lily whispers, ‘I wait.’
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    One bowl is quiet; two bowls will clang together.
    Chinese proverb.
