The Walk of Life

The Walk of Life

A Poem by Erica Ross

The walk of life is sometimes a path unknown 
But we still walk along kicking around rocks and stones 
Sometimes we take a break because the journey can take a toll 
But no matter what goes wrong, I'll never stop because I know my role 
In life I am destined to be something great 
I hear the bystanders cheering me along as I am on my way 
At times I don't know what they see in me 
But in those moments I feel a heart of a god growing within me 
And even though I walk this unknown path 
I do know for sure that it's a prosperous one, and for this makes me glad 
So while you're on your journey and your walk of life 
Never look back and ponder on your past strife 
Cause you're just that much closer to your destination 
Just pace yourself, and keep a smile 
You owe no explanations.

hello and thank you for your submission.
this is a very motivational piece, i really enjoyed reading it.
sometimes you slip out of the rhyming structure, although it hasn't had much affect on the flow of the poem.
well done and good job :)

Well written! Only feedback would be to split the poem into two different lines at some places, hence giving it that 'birdsong' feel~
