Walking is wisdom People go out Abandoning their Comfort unstitched Each step is pulling the yoke It is sunrise What drives them out And keep them running Pushing each rock That hinders their way I am sure it is an invisible Spirit that breathes inside A special gift Of God to them Not for women A message for those Shouting for equality Yesterday the rain Hit hard like strip on the fur And the man, with his umbrella Like a broken sieve, Staggering fast Due to his twisted leg Crossed the road Where ditches were the rungs I made a good comeback Though in the morning My mind had been The kettle on the fire And like him crossed The subway to reach my point Coming back is the best harvest After sowing seeds of going out And Walking is their water to grow
