Worth noting.
Journal entry, August 9, 1854
"To Boston. 'Walden' published. Elder-berries. Waxwork
yellowing."
Henry David Thoreau
Exactly
One hundred sixty years ago
Walden
Came on the scene.
A man of few words:
Henry David Thoreau.
A man
After my heart.
My elderberries
Have long since
Gone to the birds.
His elderberries
Were worth noting,
Next to Walden
And of course
A trip to Boston.
