ARTISAN OF WORDS


I am an artisan of words
Which I sculpt, chisel and fashion the way I can;
I am a creator of worlds;
I pour my emotion into the poems I write.
I breathe life into them, blow them skywards
And finish them only when they sound right.

These remnants of thought without reason
Will remain on pages season after season
Long after I'm gone; when my task is done
The love, the longing, the pain
Will be evoked then by somebody else
Who in turn will remember and write again
To create another slow soft song
That people can read and draw into their hearts
Then pillowed by words, cushioned by dreams
My poems will ride high the moonbeams.

Auberge Saint Martin, Surville








We happened to pass at the right place at the right time, which is to say, lunchtime.
The reception being warm and courteous, we decided to tuck in. The menu at 11 euros exceeded our expectations. Entrée, plat and dessert. Quantities being copious and the produce fresh and frankly delicious.

During this blog, I have written about people who have been met by hazard and who have, by the charm of their personality, have confirmed my decision to give them space in this blog. The Auberge St Martin is one of these charming places that in France one happens upon by accident or destiny and always plans to return to when one is in the region. Normandy is known for the simplest meal being a gourmet's delight, due to the quality of the region's produce. Butter, cider, liqueurs being just a few of the products that contribute to the high quality of the cuisine.

The pictures show the outside, the restaurant and the owner of the restaurant, Mrs Torres, a charming and courteous lady. The link to the Auberge will give you all the details.

Nous passions au bon endroit et au bon moment, c'est à dire à l'heure du déjeuner.

L'accueil étant chaleureux et courtois, nous avons aussitôt de prendre place. Le menu à 11 euros a dépassé toutes nos attentes. Entrée, plat et dessert. Un repas copieux, des produits frais et franchement délicieux.

Dans ce blog, j'évoque les gens rencontrés par hasard et qui, par le charme de leur personnalité, méritent que d'autres s'intéressent à eux. L'auberge Saint Martin est l'un de ces endroits de charme que l'on trouve d'abord par hasard et que l'on se promet de revoir impérativement si l'on repasse dans la région. En Normandie, les plats les plus simples contentent les gourmets, en raison de la qualité des produits de la région. Beurre, cidre et liqueurs contribuent également à la qualité de la table.

Les photo représentent l'extérieur de l'auberge et l'intérieur, sans oublier Madame TORRES, à qui nous devons cet accueil à la fois chaleureux et courtois. Pour d'autres renseignemenst, voir les liens.
