from place to place I haul my gear,
either one’s too rough, another too dear.
the search for shelter keeps me on the street,
and the domestic blisters on my feet.

from job to job I drift and dwell,
some are great, while others hell.
a need for change keeps me on my feet,
with a callused soul, bittersweet.

from tryst to kiss I stop and start,
haven’t found the one to give my heart.
my quest for love leaves me incomplete,
the hope eternal, but discreet.

a sense of place, a purpose, true,
a person to surrender to.
simple yearnings, hard to meet,
but worth the blisters on my feet.

This has a mellow rhyme scheme, that carries us along, with a great title! A key phrase that won/'/t leave my mind: CALLOUSED SOUL. A shoeless spirit, well-traveled?
While we root for the hero to find A PERSON TO SURRENDER TO, we discover a profound lesson tucked into your write; a reminder that we are incapable of appreciating what we have never done without.

Showing perfectly well how life and living is a journey.
We all take it, some travel smooth paths, some rocky roads.
There is no guidebook and no map, we all have to find our own way.

Fantastic

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
