I wish we could forever all speak in poetry.

The point at Portovenere - 19th November 2006

On the way to Byron's Grotto - Portovenere 19th November 2006

There is pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal.

Lord Byron - Childe Harold
