First Line: I stepped from plank to plank
Last Line: Some call experience.
Variant Title(s): "i Stepped From Plank To Plank"";poem: 875;poem: 926;


I stepped from plank to plank
So slow and cautiously;
The stars about my head I felt,
About my feet the sea.
I knew not but the next
Would be my final inch, --
This gave me that precarious gait
Some call experience.
