this was sooo beautiful :) i especialy liked:
Regrets from the past did set my road, which I was made to follow
Never knowing my quest or what lay ahead as I walk this avenue, some sorrow
you're an amazing writer--Keep it up:)

Very sad and powerful poem about looking back at the things that matter the most in life, pondering of what could have been and what influence you had on your family... Good Job... Judy

Very interesting, I truly like the way you write.
The only small thing that I dint think went well was
(went road). I do think I know what you meant by it,thought it stopped the flow for me.

Comment from missy98writer
deepwater,
this poem is really great, I loved it in fact. Fabulous free verse with some rhyming you've written. Dark imagery with the bitter-sweet narrative. Great art work and color presentation with the blue font. I love the repeating line: 'Now comes the time to lay me down on this cold October morn.' The lines that stood out for me:
History will tell of great men who fell, but what of us that did follow?
My world a dream, the life I've seen never knowing if there was a morrow
As I lay at rest, did my life pass the test that was set by my father before?
Regrets I have some, did it change the outcome, to what was so expected
Thanks for sharing your free verse. . .Melissa.

Hi deepwater,
Your poem reminds me of a wall, I saw painted with an old man where his dreams were painted around him and he stood pondering the way he had lived his life. He faced those dreams of happiness and regrets.
I enjoyed reading your poem very much. If it were mine, there would be only one thing I would change. At the beginning you have used the word,"morn." But at the end you have,"morning." I would change the, morning to morn. Somehow it just seems a better fit. Simply a matter of personal prefference. Thank you for sharing.

I think this is the way with most people's lives - triumphs and regrets. It may be the kind of thoughts we'll all have toward the end of our lives. Nice job on it.
