Labyrinth

Where am I going? I don't quite know.
Down to the stream where the king-cups grow -
Up on the hill where the pine-trees blow -
Anywhere, anywhere. I don't know.




Polperro...


And onwards...




A sign tried to point me in the right direction...



But I ended up lost in the labyrinth, as usual...



The waves broke on a lonely, stony shore...



Where am I going? I don't quite know.
Where does it matter where people go?
Down to the wood where the blue-bells grow -
Anywhere, anywhere. I don't know.

  4. You are on a tear today, Robert. Am I reading this correctly — three separate postings today? Having been in Washington for the day, I am having a difficult time keeping up. I loved all the walking photos, however, and posted a separate comment on the political rant. I'm wondering if the title to this posting, "Labyrinth," provoked the political rants, given the the political situation you describe in much like a labyrinth.

  6. Doozy! That's another new word for me, Karin...

    And George, I don't think the two posts are particularly connected, though, of course, everything's connected in one way or another.
