#PoetryMatters Day 25: #Enjoy
This was not the average National Trust house either. They‘ve owned it for years but it‘s only been open to the public for a few years. This is the kitchen - where you can get a cup of tea and take it over the house with you (because most of the furniture isn‘t original to the house) and look at where Hardy wrote.

First snow of season, and its cold outside!
“Every branch big with it
Bent every twig with it...”
“Snow in the Suburbs”, Thomas Hardy
#17booklove #authorilove I love so many authors that it's impossible to have a favourite but Thomas Hardy started me on my journey of love for literature so will always be special ❤️
In high school we read 'Return of the Native' which began my love for Hardy. Then in college we studied some of his poetry specifically the elegy he was asked to write following the sinking of the Titanic. It starts out fine enough but ends with him talking about wasted wealth and rotting corpses under the sea (if I remember correctly). I've been a fan of his poetry ever since. #augustphotochallenge
