Sad Eyed Lady

Famous quotes containing the words sad, eyed and/or lady:

    But thou beneath the sad and heavy line
    Of death, doth waste all senseless, cold, and dark;
    Where not so much as dreams of light may shine,
    Nor any thought of greenness, leaf, or bark.
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    This morning, there flew up the lane
    A timid lady-bird to our bird-bath
    And eyed her image dolefully as death;
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    I am a cowboy in the boat of Ra. I bedded
    down with Isis, Lady of the Boogaloo, dove
    down deep in her horny, stuck up her Wells-Far-ago
    in daring midday get away.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
