Heart Side

Famous quotes containing the words heart and/or side:

    blue bead on the wick,
    there’s that in me that
    burns and chills, blackening
    my heart with its soot,
    I think sometimes not Apollo heard me
    but a different god.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    When you were a tadpole and I was a fish
    In the Paleozoic time,
    And side by side, on the ebbing tide,
    We sprawled through the ooze and slime,
    Or skittered with many a caudal flip
    Through the depths of the Cambrian fen,
    My heart was rife with the joy of life,
    For I loved you even then.
    Langdon Smith (1858–1908)
