I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree, And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made: Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee, And live alone in the bee-loud glade. And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings; There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow, And evening full of the linnet's wings. I will arise and go now, for always night and day I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore; While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey, I hear it in the deep heart's core.

lake waves break ashore unpredictably, catching hapless strollers.

ripples on a pond:
the day seems still & windless,
but, somewhere, air moves.


sometimes placid as
a lake; sometimes churning
like the ocean.

gray-green waters
shimmer in summer sun:
leaves flutter onshore.
