About This Poem

Up and Down We Go

Travel
Does not change theme
Up and down, we go far
Coming back from where we began
Need Map

I really like this one too. I just adore a well written succinct poem.

I like this! The part of not changing theme is thought provoking - sometimes in life we move to other places claiming a change of scene but what we're really doing is running away from ourselves. Nicely penned!

Yes I like this and I think the change of title is a good idea this works, no matter how far we think we go sometimes we seem to end up back where we started sometimes a little direction is a good idea xx

Hi Holly love, this is good but I think you may be a line short for a Cinquain, have a look and let me know if I am wrong xx

HOLLY MOORE Date: 12/15/2012 3:11:00 PM

Actually, the title was the first line. So, I re-named it, and added the first line back in. I got confused when posting. We both caught it! Thanks, Hugs...Holly
