Andrew, hi

How about this…

Man Walks

Man walks deep in thought
His path absorbed by the ground
Man thinks deep in walk

On the moon man walked
Some small steps, some giant leaps
Meanwhile, down to earth

Man breathes many breaths
A thousand species expire
Alive to be pleased

With the sun behind
Footprints grow ever longer
Is this rainbow’s end?

Clouds form, thunder rolls
The man walks into the wind
Sunset, no rain falls

Eyes streaming, breath short
Dry river meanders by
Walk into the sun

Hi Everyone

It is National Poetry Day in the UK and I wondered if anyone had a favourite walking poem or suggestions of poetry one should take on a walk.

I am expecting Dee Heddon and Misha Myers to select some terrific examples from the Walking Library.

What about poetry walks - I like the sound of this trail: http://eastvillagepoetrywalk.org/ - has anyone tried it?

And a plug for a Walking Artist and Poet - listen in to Katrina Naomi: http://www.talkingwalking.net/katrina-naomi-talking-walking/

Looking forward to your suggestions

Best, Andrew
