“I go into my library and all history unrolls before me.” Alexander Smith
Alexander Smith was a 19th Century Scottish “spasmodic” poet* and essayist.
*”The spasmodic poets was a group of British poets of the Victorian era. The term was coined by William Edmonstoune Aytoun with some derogatory as well as humorous intention. The epithet itself is attributed, by Thomas Carlyle, to Lord Byron. Spasmodic poetry frequently took the form of verse drama, the protagonist of which was often a poet.” Source: Wikipedia
Speaking of history, if you are a teacher or know a teacher, I had an idea for teaching history in a fun way that might interest you: Captured from History.

That library….sigh!
Think I’m in love ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Right? I was gobsmacked when I saw that. I couldn’t believe that was real so I looked it up. It’s amazing. Hope you have a beautiful week, dear Fiery. *hugs* ♥.
It was…up and down! 😉😆
But I’m good.
Hope you’re well. Always look forward to your gems. They make me happy
Xxx
Up and down can be excellent — depends on where/with whom. 😉 Thank you for what you wrote, That makes me happy Fiery. Exactly what I hope for. =) ♥.
When I go into a library, I feel like I’m an intrepid traveller, maybe even Marco Polo
Yes! Me too. I love libraries! What would your explorer name be Ivor? I think mine would be, Niki Flow, Boldly Going Nowhere (except in my mind) for now. I tore my right knee meniscus! So now, broken left foot and right knee. What’s the lesson here? Stay PUT! Sheesh. lol ♥.
