Youth

Youth Is Always Amazed

The other people have trod
The byways that their minds
Have just discovered.

I wonder where they think
Those Hyways and Byways came from
If not from their lovers
Of those ideas?

Other minds like other foot-falls
Gone before
To wear the path.

The first thought-fall
On any endeavor
Must surely have ran
From the first brain to think
In the very first human.
