Shakespeare’s Birthplace

I went to Stratford-upon-Avon with Jeff and Sarah. Its the birthplace of Shakespeare. Probably one of the more touristy cities I’ve been to in a while. Shakespeare’s house was torn down by a Vicar so there’s only a garden on the spot, but the house he was born in still survives. It’s amazing how old some of these buildings are. I’ve posted a few pictures so far on flickr.

would to find in my heart
expression to free the mind
distill despair and descry hope
pan the muck and mire of dreams and desires
and discern
that which would change
transform in a moment
contentment in an instant
spread it through a life
dream small
love deeply
cherish the mundane
and find heaven
brewing tea
walking to a neighbors
baking bread with friends
