I have been here before,
But when or how I cannot tell:
I know the grass beyond the door,
The sweet, keen smell,
The sighing sound, the lights around the shore.
--
Sudden Light, st. 1 (1881).Dante Gabriel Rossetti
» Dante Gabriel Rossetti - all quotes »
I hear in the chamber above me
The patter of little feet,
The sound of a door that is opened,
And voices soft and sweet.Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Nought but a lovely sighing of the wind
Along the reedy stream; a half-heard strain,
Full of sweet desolation—balmy pain.John Keats
The smell of the ocean was stronger now, rank and enveloping, as if the bottom of the sea had turned over and littered the shore with its dead.
T.C. Boyle
Sweet in her green dell the flower of beauty slumbers,
Lull'd by the faint breezes sighing through her hair;
Sleeps she and hears not the melancholy numbers
Breathed to my sad lute 'mid the lonely air.George Darley
What's in a name? That which we call a rose,
By any other name would smell as sweet.William Shakespeare
