    Wander wildly, yes. Just don't
    forget to come back.

    Top of the morning to you all...

    For those of you grafting
    give yourself a pat on the back

    For those of you "frolicking"
    in the peat bogs of the north

    I send you hopes for an excellent trot!

    Meanwhile, a day of top pottering awaits
    Hope to get back on later
    (but not too late)

    Here's a nice one by Robert Frost.....

    Reluctance

    Out through the fields and the woods
    And over the walls I have wended;
    I have climbed the hills of view
    And looked at the world, and descended;
    I have come by the highway home,
    And lo, it is ended.

    The leaves are all dead on the ground,
    Save those that the oak is keeping
    To ravel them one by one
    And let them go scraping and creeping
    Out over the crusted snow,
    When others are sleeping.

    And the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
    No longer blown hither and thither;
    The last lone aster is gone;
    The flowers of the witch-hazel wither;
    The heart is still aching to seek,
    But the feet question 'Whither?'

    Ah, when to the heart of man
    Was it ever less than a treason
    To go with the drift of things,
    To yield with a grace to reason,
    And bow and accept the end
    Of a love or a season?



    I love the word wended, going to try and fit in some top quality wending in today!

    What a wonderful poem to read at the top of a hill. (A "hill of view" of course.) One for Armitage day I feel.

    May your wendings be wonderous.

    Little Ringed Plover?
