Celebrate the coming summer with a boat, a beach, some sand, the sea and poetry!

I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide / Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; / And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, / And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
- "Sea Fever", John Masefield

But O the ship, the immortal ship! O ship aboard the ship! / O ship of the body—ship of the soul—voyaging, voyaging, voyaging.
- "Aboard at a Ship's Helm", Walt Whitman

You waves, though you dance by my feet like children at play, / Though you glow and you glance, though you purr and you dart; / In the Junes that were warmer than these are, the waves were more gay, / When I was a boy with never a crack in my heart.
- "The Meditation of the Old Fisherman", William Butler Yeats

The land may vary more;
But wherever the truth may be--
The water comes ashore,
And the people look at the sea

In the ship-yard stood the Master, / With the model of the vessel, / That should laugh at all disaster, / And with wave and whirlwind wrestle!

How pleasant to sit on the beach, / On the beach, on the sand, in the sun, / With ocean galore within reach, / And nothing at all to be done!
- "Halcyon Days", Ogden Nash

And the stately ships go on / To their haven under the hill

It is a beauteous evening, calm and free; / The holy time is quiet as a nun / Breathless with adoration; the broad sun / Is sinking down in its tranquility;
- "By the Sea", William Wordsworth

On Elizabeth: dress by Japonica ($168 @ LF), headband (model's own), necklace (stylist's own).


I laid me down beside the sea, Endless in blue monotony; The clouds were anchored in the sky, Sometimes a sail went idling by.
- "Lassitude", Mathilde Blind

On Krystal: tank top by Emma and Sam ($48 @ LF), shorts by Era of Chaos ($168 @ LF), scarf (on loan).


To sea, to sea! The calm is o'er;
The wanton water leaps in sport,
And rattles down the pebbly shore;
The dolphin wheels, the sea-cow snorts,
And unseen mermaids' pearly song
Comes bubbling up, the weeds among.
Fling broad the sail, dip deep the oar:
To sea, to sea! The calm is o'er.
- "To Sea! To Sea!", Thomas Lovell Beddoes
