on The Lake District and Poetry

As I was taking my morning walk today, I couldn't help thinking about nature and how inspiring it is. Some of my favorite poets, the Romantics in particular, were often kicking around the gorgeous outdoors and writing about it. A lot of my ideas for Journals for Christa spring forth from a walk. This morning I couldn't help thinking about the Lake District and going there this summer. I'm hoping to bring back a whole journal of poems. But even if not up to Wordsworth's style, I'm excited to gaze on his beloved nature...and hoping for a little inspiration myself.
