What is your answer to this question? Please let me know ;-))
Come unto these yellow sands,
And then take hands:
Curtsied when you have, and kiss'd
The wild waves whist,
Foot it featly here and there;
And, sweet sprites, the burthen bear.

La HSBC Bank, 13 Chapel St, Stratford-upon-Avon, comté du Warwickshire, Angleterre.
Cette banque est installée en face du Town Hall dans un des plus beaux bâtiments de la ville, de style victorien et construit en 1883 pour Stourbridge and Kidderminster Banking Company. L’édifice est agrémenté d'une frise de terra-cotta représentant 15 scènes des pièces de Shakespeare. La mosaïque au-dessus de la porte représente Shakespeare avec les lettres dorées de Old Bank.
Né à Stratford-upon-Avon, ville située à proximité d'Oxford, William Shakespeare (1564-1616) y revint en 1611, assez riche et célèbre pour s'offrir des armoiries et passa les dernières années de sa vie dans sa maison de New Place.
Aujourd’hui la ville abrite deux théâtres réputés en Angleterre, qui sont le Royal Shakespeare Theatre, et le Swan Theatre. La troupe d'acteurs « Royal Shakespeare Company » est originaire de la ville, et s'y produit régulièrement. En mémoire de Shakespeare, une ville du Canada a aussi été appelée Stratford.

O Mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and hear! your true-love’s coming
That can sing both high and low;
Trip no further, pretty sweeting,
Journeys end in lovers’ meeting—
Every wise man’s son doth know.
What is love? ’tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What’s to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty,—
Then come kiss me, Sweet-and-twenty,
Youth’s a stuff will not endure.
Twelfth Night, Act II, Scene III [O Mistress mine,
where are you roaming?] William Shakespeare

Es demasiado duro , áspero y violento y pincha como un espino “ Romeo y Julieta. -William Shakespeare-
Esta es la casa en el que nació y creció en 1564 ,el dramaturgo, escritor y poeta, más importante de la literatura británica y bien vale una visita. Abierta al público desde hace 250 años, todavía hoy se puede pisar el mismo suelo que pisó William Shakespeare.
Para su época era una casa muy lujosa ya que su familia ocupaba una buena posición social. Su padre era comerciante de lana y fabricante de guantes. Nos encontramos en Stratford , que es uno de los pueblos más bonitos de toda Inglaterra . Sus casitas de madera típicas del siglo XVI, el plácido río Avon y muchísimas cafeterías y tiendas, convierten el paseo en un viaje por el tiempo. Su centro histórico bien conservado tiene muchísimos ejemplos de arquitectura Tudor (del siglo XVI) y es un festín para los amantes de la fotografía…conserva el encanto de dicha época, ya que muchas casas tienen más de de 500 años de antigüedad.
Las paredes son de un entramado de madera que se puede observar aquí, en la casa de William, en una especie de vitrina transparente colocada como información al visitante.
Dejo un par de imágenes más para ampliar un poco el panorama del que les hablo.

Blow Blow Thou Winter Wind
William Shakespeare
Blow, blow, thou winter wind,
Thou art not so unkind
As man’s ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen,
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then, heigh-ho, the holly!
This life is most jolly.
Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,
That dost not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As friend remembered not.
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly...
Appears in As You Like It, Act II Scene VII.
Shakespeare's birthplace is a restored 16th century half-timbered house situated in Henley Street, Stratford upon Avon, Warwickshire where it is believed that William Shakespeare was born in 1564 and spent his childhood years
Exeter: Kroger Jumbo eggs, my liege.
King Henry: We are glad the Dauphin is so pleasant with us.
His present and your pains we thank you for.
When we have matched our rackets to these eggs,
We will in France, by God’s grace, play a set
Shall strike his father's crown into the omelette.

BEWARE OF THOSE
Beware of those who are bitter,
For they will never allow you
To enjoy your fruit.
Beware of those who criticize you
When you deserve some praise for an achievement,
For they secretly desire to be worshiped.
Beware of those who are needy or stingy,
For they would rather sting you
Than give you anything.
Beware of those who are always hungry,
For they will feed you to the wolves
Just to get paid.
Beware of those who speak negatively
About everything and everybody,
For a negative person will never say
A positive thing about you.
Beware of those who are bored
And not passionate about life,
For they will bore you with reasons
For not living.
Beware of those who are too focused with
Polishing and beautifying their outer shells,
For they lack true substance to understand
That genuine beauty is in the heart
That resides inside.
Beware of those who step in the path of your dreams,
For they only dream to have the ability
To take half your steps.
Beware of those who steer you away
From your heart’s true happiness,
For it would make them happy to see you
Steer yourself next to them,
Sitting with both your hearts bitter.
Those who are critical don’t like being criticized,
And those who are insensitive have a deficiency in their senses.
And finally,
Beware of those who tell you to BEWARE.
They are too aware of everything –
And live alone, scared.

Many thanks to my friend AHLXNOE for advising the name of the artist as Zhané
THANK YOU TO MY FRIENDS
Though I am small and often fall
with friends like you I feel so tall
I watch the clouds; the deep blue sky
and know my friends will lift me high.
Though I have times when I am low,
I visit you; my spirits grow.
Just to see such words of love
and kindness shown, like Heaven above
has sent me angels to furnish me
with angels wings to carry me
I fly so high; my soul is light
I touch the sky from this great height
and even when it starts to pour;
my tears are dried by love and more,
for friends like you don't grow on trees,
but I am you and you are me
together we are family;
seeds we have sown and roots have grown
I thank you always from my heart
and pray that we will never part.

L’hôtel The Falcon, 4 Chapel Street (côté ouest), Stratford-upon-Avon, comté du Warwickshire, Angleterre.
The Falcon situé en face de Nash's House, au coin de Scholars Lane, est un vieil hôtel qui a un premier étage datant du 15e et un deuxième du 17e siècle ajouté un peu maladroitement pour justement en faire une auberge.
La Nash’s House, une maison à pans de bois datant de l'époque shakespearienne doit son nom à son propriétaire, Thomas Nash (1593–1647), le premier mari d'Elizabeth Hall (1608–1670), la petite-fille de Shakespeare par sa fille Susanna, qu'il épousa en 1626.
Né à Stratford-upon-Avon, ville située à proximité d'Oxford, William Shakespeare (1564-1616) y revint en 1611, assez riche et célèbre pour s'offrir des armoiries et passa les dernières années de sa vie dans sa maison de New Place.

There was a drop in temperature of almost 20 degrees between this morning and the last two days; and the westerly winds brought much needed rain. We went anyway to have lunch and to look at the sea at Zandvoort. It was a bit wet for a leisurely walk, but on the way back to the train station I spotted this pretty Sea Holly in some dunes.
Much like Skirret - about which I wrote a couple of days ago - and Salsify, the roots of Sea Holly can be prepared as a vegetable. In older times - the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries - they were candied and used as an aphrodisiac. In fact, Shakespeare mentions them in that context. For their more culinary use you might consult the cookbook put together by Elizabeth Grey (1582-1651), Duchess of Kent: True Gentlewoman's Delight.
“Therefore are feasts so solemn and so rare,
Since, seldom coming, in the long year set,
Like stones of worth they thinly placed are,
Or captain jewels in the carconet.” – William Shakespeare
"Az ünnepnap azért kápráztat el,
Mert szürke napokból ragyog elő,
Ritkán, ahogy a nyakláncban tüzel
Itt-ott egy-egy igazi drágakő." - William Shakespeare
Le monument de Shakespeare des Bancroft Gardens, Stratford-upon-Avon, comté du Warwickshire, Angleterre.
Cet imposant monument en hommage à William Shakespeare le représente assis et entouré des principaux personnages de ses pièces dont Hamlet (photo de gauche), Lady Macbeth (photo de droite), Falstaff (à gauche de la photo centrale) et Prince Hals (à droite de la photo centrale) – respectivement symbolisant la Philosophie, la Tragédie, la Comédie et l'Histoire. Le monument surnommé « Gower Memorial » fut offert à la ville de Sratford en 1888 par Lord Ronald Sutherland Gower.
Les Bancroft Gardens sont un parc public dans lequel se trouve le Royal Shakespeare Theatre. Les jardins ont été créés à l'origine pendant la période post-médiévale. Ils sont situés dans le centre de Stratford-upon-Avon sur les rives de la River Avon. Ces jardins offrent une promenade qui contourne le bassin et longe les péniches et l’écluse.
Né à Stratford-upon-Avon, ville située à proximité d'Oxford puis parti à Londres vers 1587, William Shakespeare (1564-1616) y revint en 1611, assez riche et célèbre pour s'offrir des armoiries et passa les dernières années de sa vie dans sa maison de New Place.
Aujourd’hui la ville abrite deux théâtres réputés en Angleterre, qui sont le Royal Shakespeare Theatre, et le Swan Theatre.

Inspired by Shakespeare's rendition of Titania, during her stay in some remote, nameless woodland where lovers tend to meet, and where Hermia and Lysander had chosen to elope to...for mysterious reasons.
Fairy Blessings on the Eve of Theseus' Wedding:
"Through the house give glimmering light,
By the dead and drowsy fire.
Every elf and fairy sprite
Hop as light as bird from brier.
And this ditty, after me,
Sing and dance it trippingly.
First, rehearse your song by rote,
To each word a warbling note.
Hand in hand with fairy grace
Will we sing and bless this place."

The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. Bertrand Russell
Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.
Mother Teresa
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
William Shakespeare
Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.
Ann Landers
Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.

Ernest Hemingway
Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to someone's face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions. I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come. Henri Nouwen

Venlo lies on the alluvial plain between the Herungerberg (Mount Herongen, I suppose) - on which runs the German frontier - and the Meuse River. In many areas this is boggy or fen land. And one might imagine it could well be conducive to the Witches of the English Fenlands. It is there said of our Groundsel that it sprouts up where a Wiitch has let water. And Witches, as we know, are around all year and thus our Groundsel, frost-resistant, greens and even flowers year-round, especially in untidy gardens such as ours.
Perhaps our Itinerant Witch had as a forebear one of Shakespeare's Tempestarii in Macbeth; they'd probably have liked our weather today:
'Fair is foul, and foul is fair:
Hover through the fog and filthy air.'
William Shakespeare was an English poet, playwright, and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet, and the "Bard of Avon".
Born: April 1564, Stratford-upon-Avon
Died: April 23, 1616, Stratford-upon-Avon

IN MY SECRET LIFE by LEONARD COHEN
(Pensée Secréte)
If love is just an (illusion); I (question the reason) why
my (secret thoughts) inside my mind were ever allowed to die
We (established) a collusion.
I knew (better) than to ask him why
our (simple) souls and (journey)
would cause a (sanglanté) hue and cry
I have come to the conclusion that he out-(manoeuvre)d my
attempts to win him over (even) though he didn't try.
I was under the delusion that he (could) and would not lie,
but love just caused confusion and left me high and dry.
Was our bridge (of) spinal fusion?
Were we conjoined twins he and I?
Only he understands this allusion
to say au revoir or say good-bye.
(L'affaires étrangères) allows suffusion
to slowly flush me with a sigh.
The silence passes without intrusion,
like when we feel (the end) is nigh.
I feel the soft occlusion or is it (something else) nearby
transferred by rediffusion,
the message true love will never die
(In all sincerity I believe)d (him) and (with new spirit) I survive
(They would like) to tell me please don't trust him;
(that their) thoughts were always right
But then (again), I ask if (it was) or was (not so),
(by) the time he reads this rhyme
(297) will have lost all it's meaning
and all the clues thence lost in time.
