Thread Name: YOUR Best original single lines.
Subject: RE: YOUR Best original single lines.
Here are several lines from songs of mine. I don't have a favorite, but these are some of the ones I like:
(I've interpreted "lines" to be "sentences," even when the sentence covers more than one line of the lyric.)
Then one lone voice began to sing, and others joined along,
Till from a thousand throats there came the notes of this one song:
(from: The Corliss Engine)
Ebeneezer is the focus of the fuss!
(from: The Scrooge In All of Us)
The change she saw within him then brought fear into her life --
Cold passion, without compassion's trace.
(from: Cold Passion)
When I was young, it seemed to me
There wasn't a thing I couldn't be.
(from: World of Time)
One last, long, lazy, looning laughing lark,
Before the winter comes so cold and dark.
That should be enough, I'd say.
