Loneliness clarifies. Here silence stands
Like heat. Here leaves unnoticed thicken, 
Hidden weeds flower, neglected waters quicken, 
Luminously-peopled air ascends; 
And past the poppies bluish neutral distance 
Ends the land suddenly beyond a beach 
Of shapes and shingle. Here is unfenced existence: 
Facing the sun, untalkative, out of reach.
 — Philip Larkin
