LOOKING FOR JOHN KEATS IN HAMPSTEAD!!
After fifteen years I finally find myself in his garden, in front of his house, on a solitary morning with only the National Trust men present for the reconstruction. But I cannot enter. It is closed. Everything is quiet, even the working men seem to be muted and all there is remains the sound of wind in the trees and the shushing after. I am here. Is he?

I liked this. Various photos convey a sense of the haunted, even if only by memories, and especially with a knowledge of the area.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, who could possibly live there (or look at the pictures for that matter) and NOT be inspired?
ReplyDeleteThank you Rex Cox and Ryan! I'm so completely held captive by this particular experience that I don't even want to add anything new to my blog! Ha ha! I just want the pics to stay forever, providing that link that is already disintegrating.
ReplyDeleteOOOOOOOH WOOOOOOOW.
