Out of the shadows ...

On my way back to the campsite here after a great day hiking in the surrounding hills and mountains of Snowdonia …

This work inspired Adgray to
compose these fantastic lines …......

Rest a while neath the shade of the peppercorn
Sit here with me on the crumbling wall
Smell the ferns in the dell and the medow hay
baking in the warmth of the day
see you’re not tired at all

Talk with me of what bothers you
together our minds may solve
the hurdles and missiles that assult anew
the riddles that plague and frustrate you
we’ll find solutions that will resolve

and we shall have peace for the afternoon
and we shall have warmth in the night
and we shall be content with the lives we live
for you see the world is just right
