William Blake’s Inn for
Innocent and Experienced Travelers

This inn belongs to William Blake

and many are the beasts he’s tamed

and many are the stars he’s named

and many those who stop and take

their joyful rest with William Blake.

Two mighty dragons brew and bake

and many are the loaves they’ve burned

and many are the spits they’ve turned

and many those who stop and break

their joyful bread with William Blake.

Two patient angels wash and shake

his featherbeds, and far away

snow falls like feathers. That’s the day

good children run outside and make

snowmen to honor William Blake.
