Famous quotes containing the word years:
“In the years of President Ford
Decorum and calm were restored.
He did nothing hateful
For which we were grateful
But terribly, terribly bored.”

Return to my mind with stranger pain:
Like letters that arrive addressed to someone
Who left the house so many years ago.”
