A poem for Luci

Severus Alexander

A traveler kept pace, over rough ground

Who had long left the path, in wake of him

Beneath wide skies, this canopy of dripping green and damper brown

Where those slick, dark willow trees

Or tough old oaks, lift their branches slim

And leaves like feather down

In acknowledgment, of no man

But the wind

  • Comment from author about the poem: This poem, written today, I dedicate to Walter De La Mare. In the same fashion that, even though no tree ever bows for a man, they would sing to Robert Frost. In that way, if you know, I doff my hat to him. A truly inspiring poet, I shall say his name once more, Walter De La Mare. And thrice, we are done, Walter De La Mare.
