Small Lake

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or lake:

“Whatever it was I lost, whatever I wept for
Was a wild, gentle thing, the small dark eyes
Loving me in secret.
It is here. At a touch of my hand,
The air fills with delicate creatures
From the other world.”
—James Wright (1927–1980)
