"You remember that large painting, the one they used to patch the damaged house next door to his, after the gales and floods? I found a corner of it torn off, lying in a field. It was damaged, but legible: a mountain-peak and a spray of leaves. I can't get it out of my mind."--From "Leaf By Niggle" by J.R.R. Tolkein

Feet in the sun, head in the clouds
Feet in the sun, head in the clouds. Follow feet, follow, head! Yet I miss what I'm missing, restless, I'm always Head in the clouds Feet in the sun And then the crazy command: Rest.
