As you speak about the path of life and the many pitfalls there be, You create vivid imagery as we follow your journey.
Cleverly interwoven in as you try to navigate your way through the twists and turns.

Good delivery n your interpretation.
Bets wishes,
RG

You are right, Debbie. Our life's path is not a well paved super highway. You have chosen the words that describes life more as it is. Thanks for sharing. Bob

Very good metaphor for the path of life! Yes, what else CAN we do but keep on walking till we reach those golden gates at the end of the road? :)

Debbie, this poem depicts well the arduous journey that our path in life seems to wind around, in, and through. These all serve to help us see the next inch ahead of us with full knowledge that there are no guarantees and that if we don't take a step, we are surely stuck. Thoughtful and meaningful for me. :0 GracieAnn

I love this poem Debbie, I have frequently thought of this life as a journey, necessary for growth and to recognise potholes and obstacles and milestones, this is a timely reminder for us all not to take life for granted! Great descriptive narrative, it flowed with an ease of movement, eloquent write and read! Blessings, Roy.

Well done and i enjoyed your
words and the positive theme
of trust and keep moving on
Too many look back with the
should have and might have beens.
Follow the new path with confidence
that can pusk aside the doubts

Dear Debbie,
I admire this poem so very much. (Why not count it towards your book?) In this life we do come in contact with many obstacles. My father used to plow his field and the other farmers always marveled at how straight his lines were. He always told them he never lost sight of the 'other side', the end of the row. I guess he meant keep looking forward. Have a great day my friend.
Love, Carolyn

But what else
Is there to do
besides trust
and keep walking?

You've aptly described the path of life, Debbie. All we can do is follow it, get over the hurdles and go on.

Hugs,
Lois

A rambling recourse of reminiscent adventures while on foot that we as bipedal creatures must encounter no matter if we are on earth or the moon for that matter. The lineal use of line and the simple presentation gives the piece force. Well done.
