Then and....Now?

Go now it's said too loftily,
To go where you must go.
To warn the winds,
And silent waves,
Upon your waking shore.
To South and East you travel,
Then North to West,
Go on.

To East stand there with the rising sun,
And West with the setting one.
Then South you go to travel far,
And North will bring you to a star.
Then your Quest shall truly test,
Who you really are.

I wrote this in the 7th grade... I'm kind of dead on inspiration  lately so I decided to type up an old piece...

    There you go, see, free verse - it's not my scene.
    Sorry.
    Robert Frost (YOUR poet) said that writing free verse is like playing tennis with the net down.
    I think that's a great analogy, and true.
    All the best.
