Upward

Famous quotes containing the word upward:

Melting thy pinions in thy upward flight,
Lark without song, and messenger of dawn,
Circling above the hamlets as thy nest;”

Turn upward from the desk when the human engine waits
Like a taxi throbbing waiting,”

An’ Souf is down,
An’ Hebben is up,
I’m upward boun’.”
