My journey came to the end but I hope that I’ll return
to this amazing country once again.

Я Англию по фильмам представляла,
Ведь родилась я в северном краю.
Чаи английские пила и всё мечтала,
Что Букингем и Тауэр увижу наяву.
Вот подвернулся случай мне чудесный,
И съездила я в Англию в сей год.
И много я чего там повидала,
Пополнила запас английских слов.
Так хочется ещё увидеть край чудесный!
По узким улочкам пройтись.
Вдохнуть тот воздух влажный, незабвенный.
И всё, что видела, ещё раз посетить!
Катя Ложкина.
