Rosy

Famous quotes containing the word rosy:

    Shall I, wasting in despair,
    Die because a woman’s fair?
    Or make pale my cheeks with care
    ‘Cause another’s rosy are?
    George Wither (1588–1667)

    O pale, pale now, those rosy lips,
    I aft hae kissed sae fondly;
    And closed for ay, the sparkling glance
    That dwalt on me sae kindly;
    And moldering now in silent dust
    That heart that lo’ed me dearly!
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    While glow the heavens with the last steps of day,
    Far, through their rosy depths, dost thou pursue
    Thy solitary way!
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
