  1. There is a sense of safety and security in the hidebound, but I recently rediscovered this little rhyme by Walter De la Mar (1873-1956). Maybe you recognize it.

    All But Blind

    All but blind
    In his chambered hole
    Gropes for worms
    The four-clawed mole.

    All but blind
    In the evening sky,
    The hooded bat
    Twirls softly by.

    All but blind
    In the burning day,
    The barn-owl blunders
    On her way.

    And blind as are
    These three to me,
    So blind to someone
    I must be.
