Let all the woods your footprint bear

...Picking imprints from everywhere,
Let all the woods your footprint bear,
Take off, nag at no rutted tract,
What if some rickety ways stare.

Throw to winds every needless care,
Let no head wind...

Nor recent path retrace
To blaze again
Throughout some re-run day
Nor spring-fresh leaf
