  1. Carmel HighLands By: Janet Loxley Lewis

  2. JANET LOXLEY LEWIS Janet loxley Lewis founded the literary journal Gyroscope along with her husband, the poet & critic yvor winters, & taught at Stanford & the University of California at Berkley. She is known for her historic novels, she also dedicated most of her life to poetry. Her work has inspired others such as Kenneth Rexroth, Theodore Roethke, and Dana Gioia. In the poem “Carmel HighLands” she creates strong, vivid imagery while writing with rhythmic lyricism.

  3. Carmel Highlands Below the gardens and the darkening pines A The living water sinks among the stones, B Sinking yet foaming till the snowy tones B Merge with the fog drawn landward in dim lines. A The cloud dissolves among the flowering vines, A And now the definite mountain-side disowns B The fluid world, the immeasurable zones. B Then white oblivion swallows all designs. A But still the rich confusion of the sea, A Unceasing voice, sombre and solacing, C Rises through veils of silence past the trees; A In restless repetition bound, yet free, A Wave after wave in deluge fresh releasing C An ancient speech, hushed in tremendous ease. A

  4. I Think It Means…. To me the poem means that everything is silent and peaceful. When I read this poem, I see the images in slide 5, I see the beautiful scenery of the woods and the trees swaying in the silence that is thick in the air, I see the ocean with the waves calm and splashing on top of the rocks smoothly, I see the flowering vines moving up mountains and the sides of rocks and trees, I see a lot of images in this poem that are very beautiful and peaceful, like its somewhere someone would go to get away from all the stress for a little while, like its just a relax and stay calm and collected about everything and just let your mind go kind of place….

  5. I think this part of the poem means that the wind is silence and it is bound but free at the same time. The part were it says “unceasing voice” means a voice that never come to an end. Unceasing voice, sombre and solacing, Rises through veils of silence past the trees; In restless repetition bound, yet free.

  6. I think this quote from the poem means that the water that she says is living is rushing water and not calm water. I also think she means that the rocks have a sort of white foam like substance on them. “The living water sinks among the stones, Sinking yet foaming till the snowy tones.”

  7. I think this part of the poem means that the clouds are fog that is disappearing into the flowering vines and that the vines and fog are now apart of the mountains. “The cloud dissolves among the flowering vines, And now the definite mountain-side disowns.”

  8. I think this quote from the poem means that the waves give off a relaxed feeling that makes you feel released over and over again. Also the waves are like a language that is silent and quiet that is at ease. “Wave after wave in deluge fresh releasing An ancient speech, hushed in tremendous ease.”
