Something Childish, But Very Natural

July 6, 2023Sea-ward, white gleaming thro’ the busy scud (fragment)
Sea-ward, white gleaming thro’ the busy scud
With arching Wings, the sea-mew o’er my head
Posts on, as bent on speed, now passaging
Edges the stiffer Breeze, now, yielding, drifts,
Now floats upon the air, and sends from far
A wildly-wailing Note.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834) was an English poet and philosopher who is known for his works that explore themes of nature, the supernatural, and the human imagination. He was a leading figure in the Romantic movement and his works, including "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" and "Kubla Khan," continue to be celebrated for their lyrical beauty and imaginative power.
