just an oldie i felt like posting... ____________________________________ sailing with the multitude wherever they lead my heart dreams of different waters to sail alone on a sea of dreams to a distant shore all my own my heart begs me, 'go' but my fear is too great- should my craft sink and i be off course surely i will perish alone so i remain trapped in a convoy of vessels making no waves of my own perhaps someday i will find the courage to forge the course known only by my heart -vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes |

I like this one, Vicky, and I'm glad to see you posting here. That is quite a scary proposition, striking out in your own direction. If you manage to do it, let me know how it turns out, will you? To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

Vicky, I takes courage to follow our hearts lead against reason and leave that which is comfortable or familiar. Good poem! Dennis :^) Moonbeams radiate When the veiling cloud has passed Playful shadows dance Dennis L. White :^) |

You said this was old? Well, in this case, it's an ancient treasure. Beautiful, beautiful poem, reminds me a lot of a song on the Titanic soundtrack, "Hymn to the Sea"...you should listen to it, it would fit your poem perfectly...even though it doesn't need any more improvement!

a lovely oldie but goodie, Vicky..I identify with this closely as I have always been somewhat of a loner. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

not directly relevant but this made me think of something i have read "There is no point in planning for tomorrow for we never know what tomorrow will bring"..... perhaps we avoid planning because we are reluctant to follow our heart as this poem suggets... i liked the sentiments here and am glad you posted this oldie |
