Denise Levertov, "The Quest"

High, hollowed in green
above the rocks of reason
lies the crater lake
whose ice the dreamer breaks
to find a summer season.
'He will plunge like a plummet down
far into hungry tides'
they cry, but as the sea
climbs to a luner magnet
so the dreamer pursues
the lake where loves resides.
