Poetry Quote by Billy Collins — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“No one here likes a wet dog.”

“I could feel the day offering itself to me,”

“But tomorrow, dawn will come the way I picture her,”

“But some nights, I must tell you,”

“all they want to do”

“I see all of us reading ourselves away from ourselves,”

“Poetry puts starch in your backbone so you can stand, so you can compose your life.”

“Come to the beach with me”

“How they had dreamed together, he and she... how they had planned, and laughed, and loved. They had lived for a while in the very heart of poetry.”

“Maybe I hope too much. Maybe I dream too much or maybe I love too much to just give up on you.”

“Who could have foretold”

“We must listen to poets.”
