I took the polar route
To Oxford University.
I read and walked about
The Inner Walls, and
St. Mary's too with spiral
Stone steps going high
And tight. It was a windy
Route atop an Oxford view.
I took a reading route to
Ancient city's library and
Spent my days there reading
Through letters old and worn.
Themes read just the same
Today, and this surprised,
On this, my first trip into
Long ago. You should go.
