Word to a Ripple

www.deadpoetsdaily.com
Join hands, wee verses—make a ring
And widen, widen… Everything
Will be encircled in your spell
If you but widen.

Lo! I fell
A tiny plummet in a pool—
Fallen poet, dizzy fool—
Too lost to find myself I lie…

Run on the water, rim the sky!
This fatal plunge, this little fall
Is loosed on an endless interval…
