I depart as air, I shake my white locks at the runaway sun,
[ . . . ]
I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love,
If you want me again look for me under your boot-soles.
You will hardly know who I am or what I mean,
But I shall be good health to you nevertheless,
[ . . . ]
Failing to fetch me at first keep encouraged,
Missing me one place search another,
I stop somewhere waiting for you.

Day 21: #wander #wandering #wanderer @LazyDays #poetrymatters #poetry
This is from my high school literature textbook. I fell in love with this one, and it was the 1st time I realized that people centuries ago felt the same emotions and passions that we do now. Human nature hasn't changed. A different translation: http://www.aimsdata.com/tim/anhaga/WandererMain1.htm?p=1548061026867
#PoetryMatters #wandering The Song of Wandering Angus
... I went out out to a hazel wood because a fire was in my head ...
.... though I am old with wandering Through hollow lands & hilly lands , I will find out where she has gone , And kiss her lips & take her hands And walk among long dappled grass , And pluck till time & times are done , the silver apples of the moon , the golden apples of the sun
I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Reaffirms and validates basically everything I believe. The gist of it is: the things you own end up owning you, seek experiences rather than money, read a lot, and walk a lot.
“The relinquishment of the need to make more money than we need allows us the greatest freedom.”

Wandered (🤭😜😆) across this on the library shelf and snagged it as I love WRECK THIS JOURNAL. It‘s not what I was expecting but I‘m intrigued.
