A travellers foot may not go wrong
if each single step is stood in song,

the path he leaves only speaks his way,

only one can follow & match his stay;



Tune imprints upon his earth

& another & another is given birth.

Carefully striding stamping treading ,
tracing tracks already trod.
Listening, learning, watching, adapting,

evolving with his lyrics say;


Putting his body spirit & thrust
into guiding bone so flesh does not fray;



Sand, soil & gravel, smoothest marble floors.

How to guard the soul & toe from cold & open sores.


A merry melody of dance.
A skip & a jump & then a prance.

All in accord on earth , rock or board.


Toes gripping the music of time,

ears testing the movement of rhyme

In accord brings travellers foot fine.

His reward is being , being kind.

I really liked this, thecraig. Nice thoughts for the morning.
