Toward seven o'clock every morning, I leave my study and step Out on the bright terrace; the sun already burns resplendent Between the shadows of the fig tree, makes the low wall of coarse Granite warm to the touch. Here my tools lie ready and waiting, Each one an intimate, an ally: the round basket for weeds: The zappetta, the small hoe with a short haft ... There's a rake here as well, at at times a mattock and spade, Or two watering cans filled with water warmed by the sun. With my basket and small hoe in hand, facing the sun, I Go out for my morning walk. Herman Hesse		Tuesday Jul 15, 2025

About Rupert Chawner Brooke

Rupert Chawner Brooke

Rupert Chawner Brooke (middle name sometimes given as Chaucer) (August 3, 1887 - April 23, 1915) was an English poet known for his idealistic War Sonnets written during the First World War (especially The Soldier ), as well as for his poetry written outside of war, particularly The Old Vicarage, Grantchester and The Great Lover . He was also known for his boyish good looks, which prompted the Irish poet William Butler Yeats to describe him as "the handsomest young man in England".
