To Fly Again

O, that I could fly again on winged feet of youth The feats that I would dare again dangerous, in truth... As I pause to sigh agin memories dance before my eyes maidens fair, adventure stirring whispers vanished, so alluring

Gershon, Happy Mother's Day Sunday, though perhaps bittersweet for some. Doling out quotes today, here's yours: “It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.” -J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings
