Steps of a WandererA Poem by Emily QuinnGlide along moonlit silk Upon feet made of glass Kiss the chill of twilight's breath And taste the poor mans ilk
Savor calm of the Universe The black silence of the stars Sway in Earth’s cradled touch The wanderer’s traverse
Bound from ledges of normalcy Through the palm a coin shall burn An ember of the suns array Unbound by ties of solvency
Sway amongst oceanic tide Feet unbound with heavy led Not a penny in the pocket No man from which to hide
So glide along moonlit silk Upon feet made of glass Kiss the chill of twilights breath And taste the poor mans ilk © 2011 Emily QuinnAuthor's Note
