A Book And A Shady Nook

352

Oh for a book and a shady nook, either indoors or out, with the green leaves whispering overhead, or the street cries all about, where I may read at all my ease, both of the new and old, for a jolly good book, whereon to look, is better to me than gold. ~ John Wilson

Someone wiser than me has said
Spring when you wake in the morning,
Winter when you go to bed.
