Chattahoochee (River)

Out of the hills of Habersham,
Down the valleys of Hall,
I hurry amain to reach the plain:
Run the rapid and leap the fall,
Split at the rock, and together again
Accept my bed, or narrow or wide,
And flee from folly on every side
With a lover’s pain to attain the plain,
Far from the hills of Habersham,
Far from the valleys of Hall.
Sidney Lanier—The Song of the Chattahoochee.
