My body leaves; my core can stay,

Where I shall breathe another way.

The route of south I always linger.

My arms have arms; my ring no finger.



What am I?

          Are you a:




          tree?




          My body leaves; my core can stay,




          A double meaning: The body is leafs/leaves, and when they go away for the winter, the trunk/core remains




          Where I shall breathe another way.




          With no leaves, a tree can still exchange oxygen and CO2, just in a more dormant state




          The route of south I always linger.




          Route/root is another double meaning. [Via OP: roots stretch downward, and are harder to move the deeper they go]




          My arms have arms; my ring no finger.




          The arms are branches, which can have more branches stemming from them. Tree trunks can have rings, but do not have fingers.

          Are you:




          A planet or galaxy?




          My rough thinking:




          When a big planet explodes, it leaves its core behind. Also, planets have rings...
          A galaxy have arms :) I have no idea how the other hints apply to this.

            Are you a




            Black hole ?




            Because :




            A black hole is the core of a former star, whose most of its matter was expulsed through space via a supernova.
            Black holes are often surrounded by rings of hot gas. No idea for the arms or the south hints though.

              The arms might be rot13(dhnfnef) but it seems like a bit of a stretch, I suppose.

                    Are you a




                    Black hole ?




                    Because :




                    A black hole is the core of a former star, whose most of its matter was expulsed through space via a supernova.
                    Black holes are often surrounded by rings of hot gas. No idea for the arms or the south hints though.

                      The arms might be rot13(dhnfnef) but it seems like a bit of a stretch, I suppose.
