takes to the road alone,
in search of a path
or a place unknown:
drawn along the winding track,
sometimes they won't ever
come back

out to sea in
boats of hope,
against tides and storms
with sails and rope:
over the waters
they will roam;
sometimes the sailor
doesn't come home

drifters drift,
explorers seek
the next best thing
or the highest peak:
the outward urge
is what they yearn;
sometimes the seekers
never return.

that is very beautiful. I was almost hypnotized by this poem.

There is no greater show of love, than the test of time, and waiting for someone.
You captured that essence perfectly.

Hi Spike,

Now I see what I've missed, after being away from
the site for so long.

Another trademark piece of verse - short and to
the point, and brilliantly expressed.

And I ask myself ..... why has this poem had so few
reads??
