We gathered the wild-flowers.
Yes, life there seem'd one pure delight.
As thro' the field we rov'd.
Yes, life there seem'd one pure delight.
- George Linley
I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high over vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils,
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay,
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
- William Wordsworth
There's rosemary, that's for remembrance--pray you love, remember. And there is pansies, that's for thoughts.
- William Shakespeare
It will never rain roses.
When we want to have more roses,
we must plant more roses.
- George Eliot
