happy little sigh

Spring has felt more like early summer here in the US where we’ve been living since last August–everything in full bloom, the daffodils and tulips now long gone, the warm, sultry temperatures we’ve already enjoyed . . . But, as always, I am reminded of my lovely Great Britain, and in particular, of my drive down to England one year ago–last May–as part of our Last Hurrah before moving to America. One of our stops was Oxford . . .

I saw the spires of Oxford

As I was passing by,

The grey spires of Oxford

Against a pearl-grey sky

~ Winifred Mary Letts 1882-1972

“The Spires of Oxford”

Feel free to add it to your quotebook!

For a short glimpse of the real Oxford, England (Spires, gonging church bells and all)
