The lonely bridge

“There are bridges on the rivers,
As pretty as you please;
But the bow that bridges heaven,
And overtops the trees,
And builds a road from earth to sky,
Is prettier far than these.”

(Ch. Rossetti in Boats sail on the rivers)

The wind is passing by

Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you;
But when the leaves hang trembling
The wind is passing through. 

Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I;
But when the trees bow down their heads
The wind is passing by.

(Ch. Rossetti in Who has seen the wind?)

Empty cages

“A leopard went around his cage
from one side back to the other side;
he stopped only when the keeper came around with meat;
A boy who had been there three hours
began to wonder, “Is life anything like that?””

(Charles Ives in The cage)
Liège-Sclessin (B)
