John Donne, Sign and A New Word

23 Jan

Yesterday was John Donne’s birthday. I love this poem.

22/01/1572: Birthday of John Donne

A friend has a second-hand bookshop in Falmouth and today has this delightful sign in her window.

Today seems the right time to share this wonderful new word. I just love the smell of old books and the feeling of wistfulness that wraps one up in a second-hand bookshop like Bookmark, shown above, in Falmouth.
