The Wanderer

Twenty-five degrees. A pleasant run. I did have on a light pair of gloves. But the feet were free, and the toes, you see, came happily along.

The wanderer roves from east to west,

in his wake the icy wind — he gathers stars

in his tattered sack, shows his back

then lights his lamp again.
