Woolgathering

moony

And in my travels, when I see a hill dotted with sheep or a staff lying among the chestnut leaves, I am moved by a sense of longing to be again what I was not.

I imagined a lot of things. That I would shine. That I'd be good. I'd dwell bareheaded on a summit turning a wheel that would turn the earth and undetected, amongst the clouds, I would have some influence; be of some avail.
