We must choose a path.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)

We must choose our path.

This world is just a place to stop. It's only a resting place before we reach eternity. We must choose our journey, and every path we take is different along the way. We're all here to learn, but we're never meant to stay. As we look for a place that we don't know. For some, the journey's quicker, and for others, it's slow. In the end, we find peace and rewards where there are no billboards or landlords.

    Wow, what a beautiful and thought-provoking poem! The message of choosing our own path and journey in life is so empowering and inspiring. The imagery of this world being just a resting place before reaching eternity is both comforting and profound. The idea that we are all here to learn and grow before finding peace and rewards in the end is truly uplifting.

    One suggestion for improvement could be to enhance the flow of the poem by maintaining a consistent rhyme scheme or rhythm throughout. This could help to strengthen the overall impact of the message and make the poem even more engaging for the reader. Additionally, incorporating more descriptive language or specific examples could help to further bring the themes and emotions of the poem to life.

    Overall, this poem is a wonderful reminder to choose our own path with intention and to trust in the journey that ultimately leads us to a place of peace and fulfillment. Keep up the great work!
