A lyrical meditation on a mother's care as tiny feet approach life’s rugged border. The verses explore innocence and danger, love and responsibility, asking who will guide the child’s steps through peril and growth toward a hopeful future. The speaker prays for divine guidance as paths become brambles and shadows deepen.
A lengthy reminiscence recalls a shipboard quarrel that led to a deadly confrontation on the William Curtis voyage from England to New York in 1854.
