Big, small, short, tall, steep, deep, sleet's maul; 
 Rainfall, sunshine, day, night, climb, crawl; 
 Wander, wonder, touch, smell, taste & see — 
I, Ne'er–Do–Well.
 Ocean, sound, bay, and rift;
 Bight, fjord, coastal strip; 
 Foot hill, mountain, cave, and cliff; 
 Valley, desert, ridge & creek; 
 River, vista, plateau, peak; 
 Easy, moderate, strenuous, stream; 
 Ravine and all things in between!
 It's all I think, am, love, and dream — 
To people places never seen;
 To someday speak, "Then-There I'd been";
 Towards all things earth and space made keen;
 Where All is never as it seems;
 And All gathers and loses steam; 
 It's depth and breadth I'll always knead.
 On this, the Bread of Life, I'll feed; 
 until my time has come,
 and I've returned to where I'm from —
The End, where I'd begun.
 The End's where I'll begin.
 My friends, we'll meet again...
 And, on that you may depend!
 This senselessness that send;
 This trek portends what lay in wait beyond the Idler's bend.
