Light Balls

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or balls:

“So fallen! so lost! the light withdrawn
Which once he wore!
The glory from his gray hairs gone
Forevermore!”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

“look the spangles
that sleep all the year in a dark box
dreaming of being taken out and allowed to shine,
the balls the chains red and gold the fluffy threads,

put up your little arms
and i’ll give them all to you to hold”
—E.E. (Edward Estlin)
