• a balcony with doors to throw open on a summer's morn.
• a garden, for whiling away a summer's eve.
• a hammock in which to sleep, read, and relax.
• a library, walls lined floor to ceiling with books.
• a map of the world on which to mark future destinations.
• a workspace for when inspiration strikes at 3am.
• a wine cellar, for all the wine I don't drink.
• a well-equipped kitchen for when I suddenly fancy a three course meal.
• a gramophone for playing old jazz records.
• a record player, too, for my (currently rather limited) collection.
• a swing in the garden, for my own enjoyment, and for any children I have.
• a comfortably messy bed suitable for late night kisses and later lie-ins.

` words

• "To see the World in a grain of sand,

and Heaven in a wildflower; hold Infinity in the palm of your hand, and Eternity in an hour."

-William Blake

• i drew a heart in my breath's fog
