Post an inspiritional line from a poem.

I will start. "I like, I like green eggs and ham." I am being facetious.

"And all of the Angels in Heaven above,
And the demons down under the sea,
Could ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of my beautiful Annabel Lee."
Edgar Allan Poe

"I would like to be the air

that inhabits you for a moment

only. I would like to be that unnoticed

and that necessary."

-Margaret Atwood

We cannot know his legendary head
With eyes like ripening fruit.

@ProfessorPlum: I am just partial to nonsense poetry really... I guess a better candidate for this thread would be Edward Lear's Owl and the Pussycat. It's nonsense, but beautiful nonsense :)
