The pool glitters, the fishes leap in the sun <br />With joyous fins, and dive in the pool again; <br />I see the corn in sheaves, and the harvestmen, <br />And the cows coming down to the water one by one. <br />Dragon-flies mailed in lapis and malachite <br />Flash through the bending reeds and blaze on the pool; <br />Sea-ward, where trees cluster, the shadow is cool; <br />I hear a singing, where the sea is, out of sight; <br />It is noontide, and the fishes leap in the pool.<br /><br />Arthur Symons<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/by-loe-pool/
