Lewis Carroll

            Lewis Carroll 
           (27 January 1832 – 14 January 1898)


 On a snowy day such as this, Lewis Carroll must have had these thoughts and put pen to paper. Today is the anniversary of his death. His works include Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking-Glass, Jabberwocky, and The Hunting of the Snark.  The way he plays with words and uses imagination and fantasy forever appeals to the child within.I love the idea and sentiment of the quote below:

 “I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says "Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.”
