Lying on a beach
midsummer
night's dream
William is making

looking for shells

And Dante sais
Doesn't matter
We all love one thing

Today is

"The curfew tolls the knell of parting day,
The lowing herd wind slowly o'er the lea,
The plowman homeward plods his weary way,
And leaves the world to darkness and to me."
