    the traveller
    i leave the way
    i came, with nothing
    but those that i had
    but yes, i would leave behind
    my own footsteps,
    and more, and more!

    i settle once again
    and who knows how long
    would i stay?
    yet as i stay, i shall
    move this place and make it
    much, much better, perhaps
    if only You would let me
    yes, i could.

    don't look at me
    with envy or spite
    i won't stay long
    i only came
    to make a difference.

    I rate this poem a 10, too, just like Mr. Hampton! It is really full of heart and it does have a soul!

    I rated this poem a 10 and it shows that I am the only person that has rated the poem yet it came up with an overall rating of 7. I think a bug may be at play.

    Thank you, Sir for your generous comment.I have expressed my feelings the best way I could and to me that's all that matters.

    This is a very heartfelt meaningful piece of work that also carries a message. It has poetic soul.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
