Over rock and under tree,. By caves where never sun has shone,. By streams that never find the sea;. Over snow by winter sown,. And through the merry flowers of June,. Over grass and over stone,. And under mountains in the moon. Roads go ever ever on,. Under cloud and under star. Yet feet that wandering have gone. A day will ...

They burned beseeching fires all night long. To keep the year alive. And when the new year’s sunshine blazed awake. They shouted, revelling. Ross-on...

http://ladyofthegreenwood.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Lady of the Greenwood. Scroll down the path through The Greenwood. The World Turns To Ice. Saturday, 3 November 2012. Remember, remember the fifth of November. Gunpowder, treason and plot.
