Letter "E" » Evening
"At the close of the day, when the hamlet is still
And mortals the sweets of forgetfulness prove,
When nought but the torrent is heard on the hill
And nought but the nightingale's song in the grove."
Author: James Beattie
About: Evening
"And whiter grows the foam,
The small moon lightens more;
And as I turn me home,
My shadow walks before."
Author: Robert Seymour Bridges
About: Evening
"To me at least was never evening yet
But seemed far beautifuller than its day."
Author: Robert Browning
About: Evening
"Hath thy heart within thee burned,
At evening's calm and holy hour?"
Author: Stephen Greenleaf Bulfinch
About: Evening
"It is the hour when from the boughs
The nightingale's high note is heard;
It is the hour when lovers' vows
Seem sweet in every whispered word;
And gentle winds, and waters near,
Make music to the lonely ear.
Each flower the dews have lightly wet,
And in the sky the stars are met,
And on the wave is deeper blue,
And on the leaf a browner hue,
And in the heaven that clear obscure,
So softly dark, and darkly pure.
Which follows the decline of day,
As twilight melts beneath the moon away."
Author: Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron)
About: Evening
"When day is done, and clouds are low,
And flowers are honey-dew,
And Hesper's lamp begins to glow
Along the western blue;
And homeward wing the turtle-doves,
Then comes the hour the poet loves."
Author: George Croly
About: Evening
"The curfew tolls the knell of parting day,
The lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea,
The ploughman homeward plods his weary way,
And leaves the world to darkness and to me."
Author: Thomas Gray
About: Evening
"Day hath put on his jacket, and around
His burning bosom buttoned it with stars."
Author: Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
About: Evening
"How gently rock yon poplars high
Against the reach of primrose sky
With heaven's pale candles stored."
Author: Jean Ingelow
About: Evening
"But when eve's silent footfall steals
Along the eastern sky,
And one by one to earth reveals
Those purer fires on high."
Author: John Keble
About: Evening
