Poetry 2017 Longlist, Sunayna Pal

The Explorer

Suntanned, but happy feet,
Remind me of the traveled street.
Drained, but not empty yet,
The road and me, lost in our duet.

Pedicured feet may stay indoors,
Grass and breeze will heal my sores.
Until open, hungry eyes desire more.
Unchained heart, always ready to soar.
