Silver Weight

Famous quotes containing the words silver and/or weight:

    For soon amid the silver loneliness
    Of night he lifted up his voice and sang,
    Secure, with only two moons listening,
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    as his weight wilts
    and he is on a porch
    that won’t hold my arms,
    or the legs of the race run
    forwards, or the film
    played backwards on his grandson’s eyes.
    Michael S. Harper (b. 1938)
