WB Yeats #NaPodPoMo Reading Poetry: “The Lake Isle of Innisfree” 1/30

from From Cork With Love - by Paul O'Mahony · host Paul O'Mahony

You hear a recording of  W B Yeats reading his most popular poem.You hear Paul O’Mahony reading the poem twice.“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 dayI 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.
