Elizabeth Berg Quotes

I Take In A Huge Breath And Look At The Sky As Hard As I Can. I Feel Like I'm Trying To Eat It With My Eyes. I Wish There Would Be Certain Things You Come Across And You Could Say, Okay, That's One. Put That Away For Me To Pull Out Later Just Exactly As It Is Now. My Dream Is For Me To Be A Poet Who Could Make Things Like This Sky Come To Life For Someone Else. If You See A Sunset And Try And Describe It To Someone In Normal Words, All You Can Say Is, "Boy, I Saw A Great Sunset Last Night." But If You Are A Poet, You Give It To Someone To Feel For Themselves. Like You Make A Little Seed Of What You Say, They Swallow It, And It Blooms Again Inside Their Own Heart.
