Poem by Robert Lee Frost

On Being Idolized

The wave sucks back and with the last of water 
It wraps a wisp of seaweed round my legs, 
And with the swift rush of its sandy dregs 
So undermines my barefoot stand I totter, 
And did I not take steps would be tipped over 
Like the ideal of some mistaken lover. 

1. Once by the Pacific
2. Canis Major
3. Misgiving
4. On Going Unnoticed
5. The Valley’s Singing Day
