Kerala unfolds like a serene dream, a lush tapestry of emerald landscapes where tranquil backwaters caress the shores. The air is rich with the sweet scent of coconut palms swaying in a gentle breeze, while nature’s melodies create a soothing symphony. Sunlight dances on the water’s surface, reflecting vibrant greens and blues, as houseboats glide by, carrying whispers of the past. The vivid hues of blooming flowers and the rustle of banana leaves evoke a peace reminiscent of Innisfree, inviting you to escape into the tranquil embrace of this enchanting land

Literary Devices

1. Imagery: Yeats creates vivid mental pictures of Innisfree with descriptions of the natural world:

"I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree"

"Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee"

"And evening full of the linnet's wings"

2. Alliteration: The repetition of consonant sounds emphasizes rhythm and mood:

"a hive for the honeybee"

"I hear lake water lapping"

3. Metaphor: The poem contrasts the peaceful life at Innisfree with the busy city life, though not directly stated, the difference in experiences is metaphorical.

The city represents complexity and chaos, while Innisfree symbolizes tranquility and simplicity.

4. Repetition: The phrase "I will arise and go now" is repeated, showing the speaker’s persistent longing to escape.

5. Personification: Nature is given human-like qualities:

"And live alone in the bee-loud glade" (the glade seems to hum with the bees, as if it's alive).

SUMMARY

In the second stanza, the speaker envisions the serenity of Innisfree. He describes how peace will come "dropping slow" like the soft morning mist. The natural rhythm of the day unfolds, with mornings cloaked in a hazy, dreamlike beauty, and the evenings filled with the gentle flutter of linnet birds' wings. The imagery here emphasizes the quiet and stillness of life on the island, where nature brings peace gradually and consistently.

Summary of the poem "Lake Isle of Innisfree

# data[].attributes.body
he poet is reminded of his past, his boyhood, when he visited the peaceful Lake Isle of Innisfree. He wants to go there and says that he will live there all alone. He wants to build a small cabin with clay and wattles. He would grow beans and get a honeybee hive for honey to survive on.
The poet describes the peaceful natural surroundings of the lake. He says that the scene of the cloudy mornings, the shining stars, the glowing Sun and birds flying in the sky give him peace. He feels relaxed to hear the pleasant sound of the cricket’s song.
The poet feels the urgency to go to the lake Isle of Innisfree. In the depth of his heart, he can hear the sound of the lake waters hitting the shore. It is as if the lake is calling him. He hears the sound everywhere – either on the crowded roads or the grey – coloured pavements of the city in which he lives. This indicates that he wants to escape from the artificial life of the city into the peaceful surroundings of nature.

stanza 2 : In this stanza the poet says that when in Innisfree, he will feel peaceful, and he says that the feeling of peace is felt slowly and gradually. He describes how he would feel peaceful. In the morning time, when it is cloudy, and the view is not very clear, then it will appear as if the morning has worn a veil and has hidden itself. Looking at this scene will make him feel peaceful. Further he says that when the male cricket insect will sing a song, that sound will bring him at peace. Also, at midnight when he will see the twinkling stars in the open sky, their shine will give him peace. In the afternoon, when the sun light will give a purplish glow, it will also give him peace. During the evening, when he will see the linnet bird flying in the sky, then also he will feel peaceful.

stanza 3:In this stanza the poet says that now he will stand up and go to Innisfree because all the time, the sound of the lake waters striking the shore repeats in his mind. This sound attracts him towards the lake. Wherever he is – either standing on the roadway or on the grey – coloured pavements, he hears the sound deep in the innermost part of his heart.

In the third stanza, he says that, even in the city, the sound of lake water stays with him. While he stands on the colourless pavement as he recollects the lake surroundings. He still hears it deep in his hearts core.

he poem ‘No Men Are Foreign’ begins and ends with the same line- ‘Remember no men are strange, no countries foreign’ as the poet wants to emphasize on the fact that all the people living on this Earth are the same and that we have created distinctions by erecting borders and fences, different languages, etc. While we are alive, we walk on the same Earth and upon our death, we will lie in our graves in the same earth.
