Coming

Famous quotes containing the word coming:

    ... like a
    Wave on a beach, that thinks it’s had this
    Tremendous idea, coming to crash on the beach
    Like that, and it’s true, it has, yet
    Others have gone before, and still others will
    Follow.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “... The grave and my calm body are shut to your coming as stone,
    And the endless beginning of prodigies suffers open.”
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    A glimpse through an interstice caught,
    Of a crowd of workmen and drivers in a barroom around the stove late of a winter night, and I unremarked seated in a corner,
    Of a youth who loves me and whom I love, silently approaching and seating himself near, that he may hold me by the hand,
    A long while amid the noises of coming and going, of drinking and
    oath and smutty jest,
    There we two, content, happy in being together, speaking little,
    perhaps not a word.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
