To live a life full of adventure as long as it is on the path you chose for yourself. I like the message of being who you are. It is a Quest. Great job.

Comment from apelle
excellent life story in a poem
The lessons this life has planted in my heart pertain more to caring than crops, more to Golden Rule than gold, more to the proper choice than to the popular choice.
Kirby Larson,
thanks

What a awesome and excellent story in a poem, the life in your structure says and tells so much, I loved it, the image is strong, and to the point, and so easy to follow, no errors I could see, thank you for sharing.

Comment from resilke
Well done. I like the idea and character of a pilgrim to begin and the message at the end of having chosen your own life and accepting its turn out as one to be enjoyed. Good message. I might seperate it into stanzas as I got lost in the detail in the middle and lost my attention part way through, but overall, a good idea, creative, original. Good

Comment from Lani2
A well written poem that tells a true story. Most of the time we do have a choice in making our life what it is. We have to like our self before we can be content and at peace to travel that journey of life. Good writing. Lani2

Comment from closetpoetjester
Wow what a lovely almost wistful but very powerful piece. Ambled along with a beautiful flow and each word was mastered beautifully.
Wonderfully written and a thorough credit to you.
My fave line: "seeking intimate wealth in the company of friends" clever use of such simple words.
Cheers closetpoetjester

Comment from Juliette Chamberlain
It is such a privelage to be able to say that you lived your life in your own way.
Sometimes it is pleasant to go against the flow and simply be who we ourselves want to be, and to be at peace with oneself is truly a wonderful gift.

Comment from Connie P
I love the viewpoint behind this well written poem. To look at life as a quest is something we tend to forget to do. The first line is very good, which is always important to capture the reader's attention.
My two favorite lines:
Only to bet your soul against the human unknown,
Seeking intimate wealth in the company of friends,
Well done,
Connie

Comment from LYLE
GW,
This is a wonderful piece, written by a man who strives to be his own man. I was born in Oklahoma, lived in Texas for several years, and spent a lot of time on a much earlier model of what you are sitting on in the photo.
There is something about being close to the earth that makes a man seek his own way in life. Congratulations.
Sincerely, Lyle

I think that you are getting the hang of true poetry format. This is good free-style. Remember that poetry is not paragraph writing.
Good job.
