..i like it with one reservation.."spongy path"
too reminds me of 'sponge
bath'
..think i'd like it even more if it were a soggy path
or some such adjective..thanks:

a soggy path

..and please do not be offended by my taking liberties with your poem..it's just that i've
participated in several workshops and sometimes
have hard time shaking off
that mode..>>spiros

no offence taken whatsover Spiro - spongy was the feeling I had walking that particular path - soggy would be TOO wet - if it had been soggy I wouldn't have attempted it - actually a section was very soggy and needed careful negotiation.
