Reverse his age
\nAnd thats almost me
\nA couple of years off
\nMe seemingly
\nFinland a happy place
\nLots of deep snow
\nHappy birthday Dear David
\nFrom Rex yea you know
\nMet you in Glasto
\nPoems and all
\nClose to the abbey
\nLooking over the wall
\nI saw not a pussy cat but a white bear
\nIf you believe that<\/p>\n

Hi Rex. I love your poems, and I honestly could not wish for a better living testament. William Burges, the great Gothic Revival architect who devoted his life to medieval fantasy and excess, would have loved your comment about the regal white bear stealthily walking through the abbey. Thank goodness nobody else noticed but you, otherwise there might have been mass panic.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s funny you mention that. The forests here really do hold thousands of bears, lynx, and other creatures that feel almost mythical. Mind you, the elk here are even bigger than the brown bears, which feels excessive and slightly threatening.
\nBurges would absolutely have approved of a spectral bear wandering through sacred architecture. He designed half of Britain as if he expected that sort of thing anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
