Move On

I must move on

keep goals in sight

make haste while there
 
is sun and light.


More roads to walk
 
more hills to climb

before the dark
 
and cold of night.

Agnes Krampe Date: 11/7/2017 6:17:00 PM Reading your poem, I was reminded of Frost's "miles to go before I sleep". Very nice one, Sandra - good luck in the contest. Login to Reply Sandra Haight Date: 11/7/2017 6:20:00 PM Thank you, Agnes. Actually, I had entered a longer version of this poem in a contest here last year whereby we had to write a poem in the style of our favorite poet, and mine is indeed Robert Frost, and the poem you mention was the one I was using as a guide! You know your poets well! Thanks for the nice comment. Hugs, Sandra
