Traveling

Traveling

A Poem by Calypso
"

This is now I feel about traveling.

"

Of course I would like

to travel the world and

sample its sweet nectar.

 

I would adore to fly like the birds

and to crawl like the snakes.

To swim like a dolphin

and breath like a fish.

 

But then

to have a full stomach,

you will have an empty wallet.

This is really good. For such a short poem it has a lot of impact on the reader. The similes in the second stanza make me feel uplifted and happy. Tis a feel good poem. It shows that you have to make some sacrifices for the things we like/want. (:

This is cute. The last paragraph reminds me of a fortune cookie. One little typo: breath should be breathe. I like this one :)

That flash of practicality in the end was awesome.
It was the perfect end to the poem.

Yes the great dream of the most of us. To be able to travel and study this world. I would love to see every mysteries and have conversation with people from the four corners of the world. The ending is true. Need a lot of money and free time to travel this world. A outstanding poem. Thank you.
