At last, bad weather breaks.
Sun sets over Sherkin.
At end of perfect day,
Cradle ice cold Guinness
Sat outside Jacob’s Bar.
Talk of past Fiddle Fairs,
And many yet to come,
How many folk land here
By accidental means,
Then never leave again.
It’s one of those places
Engraved upon my heart
I love you Baltimore,
I think I always will.
Harry Rogers in The Stone House, Baltimore, 19th April 2023.
