With my childhood copy of Shakespeare's Complete Works battered, annotated, and underlined, I gifted myself a keepsake copy from The Globe in London and embarked on the quest to read it cover to cover. I usually read myself to sleep and, having reached Romeo and Juliet, was dozing off when the first two lines of this poem popped into my head. Unable to rest until I completed it, this is the result. Then where to put it? What to do with it? Thank you Unrestricted Poetry Contest--it now has a home.
