Long Walk Home by Joe CramerIt's a long walk home
Not that I'm in any kind of
Rush or anything.
No one is expecting me
Since I'm all alone.
So I take my sweet old time
Rambling, ambling and scrambling
Through rain-sodden streets
Slick with winter wet.
It's a long walk to my house
Where the sweet somber embrace
Of so many volumes surround me.
Cool and quiet
Serene and silent.
This long walk home, this stroll
Clears my mind as I trudge
The walk of the unrequited.
It's a long walk home. 02/27/1975 Posted on 05/02/2006 Copyright © 2024 Joe Cramer
