winnie's human (all work and no play)
frisky
“Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds,
Towards Phoebus’ lodging. Such a waggoner
As Phaëton would whip you to the west
And bring in cloudy night immediately.
Spread thy close curtain, love-performing night,
That runaways’ eyes may wink, and Romeo
Leap to these arms untalked of and unseen.”
It is William Shakespeare’s 450th birthday today. I have no way of proving it, but I sincerely believe that he was imagining these horses when he wrote those lines from Romeo and Juliet.
