  • Фелиция Белковаhas quoted3 years ago
    The steeples swam in amethyst,
    The news like squirrels ran.
  • Фелиция Белковаhas quoted3 years ago
    the breeze in her castle of sunshine;
    Babbles the bee in a stolid ear;
  • Фелиция Белковаhas quoted3 years ago
    For each beloved hour
    Sharp pittances of years,
    Bitter contested farthings
    And coffers heaped with tears.
  • Фелиция Белковаhas quoted3 years ago
    For each ecstatic instant
    We must an anguish pay
    In keen and quivering ratio
    To the ecstasy.
  • Milica Jovanovićhas quoted3 years ago
    If I can stop one heart from breaking,
    I shall not live in vain;
    If I can ease one life the aching,
    Or cool one pain,
    Or help one fainting robin
    Unto his nest again,
    I shall not live in vain.

    The proudest trees.

    It’s like the morning,—

    Best when it’s done,—

    The everlasting clocks

    Chime noon.
  • b9142801668has quoted4 years ago
    The Wind.
    It’s like the light,—

    A fashionless delight

    It’s like the bee,—

    A dateless melody.

    It’s like the woods,

    Private like breeze,

    Phraseless, yet it stirs
  • b9142801668has quoted4 years ago
    I’m nobody! Who are you?
    Are you nobody, too?
    Then there’s a pair of us—don’t tell!
    They’d banish us, you know.

    How dreary to be somebody!
    How public, like a frog
    To tell your name the livelong day
    To an admiring bog!
  • b9142801668has quoted4 years ago
    Put me in on the firmest side,

    So I shall never fall;

    For we must ride to the Judgment,

    And it’s partly down hill.

    But never I mind the bridges,

    And never I mind the sea;

    Held fast in everlasting race

    By my own choice and thee.

    Good-by to the life I used to live,

    And the world I used to know;

    And kiss the hills for me, just once;

    Now I am ready to go!
  • b9142801668has quoted4 years ago
    shady friend for torrid days
    Is easier to find
    Than one of higher temperature
    For frigid hour of mind.
