Whoa! Is that how you live your life? Good for you? I'm not too adventuresome because I'm not particularly brave! Well done my friend.

    Well...age has tempered thoughts of adventures that require a great deal of bravery...lol... But I still look for interesting adventures..the kind I can relate to friends when I get old and we're sitting in our rockers in front of a roaring fire on a cold winter night...Thanks for the review....;-)

Very very true...and I think it could be said of everyone. Each and every one of us has a quest; one that only we can fulfill. We are all searching for something, whether it be new adventures and experiences...or maybe something more. Something deeper. Something we were meant for.

And there I go, getting all deep-and-profound-ish again, lol. Great job! Those six words were a good choice. :-)

    Thanks for the insightful review, Dearheart. I enjoyed your depth and profundity. Yes...everyone has quest of some sort or another. Of course new quests can be added on, and hidden subconscious quests can resurface when we least expect it. It sure makes life interesting ...doesn't it?

    Thanks for the review..
    Glad this little six worder was a thought provoker...

The picture works perfectly to portray the adventure idea. I like the lines you penned. Good luck with this piece. I am starting to get brave and am trying new forms on this site, myself. grassroots08

    That's great you're becoming adventurous and are trying out new forms. When I joined FS, I knew nothing about any of the forms. A great help to me...and for anyone who wants to learn about forms is shadowpoetry.com...if you go there, click on 'poetry types'...it will give you dozens and dozens of forms, with rules, and examples, etc. I like the site so well, I'm now a member of SP....and have a house on 'Rondel Route'...;.)

    Thanks for the review,
    I appreciate the comments...
    Have a wonderful weekend,

A never-ending quest for never-ending adventures. Just a thought. I like your take and I expect others will, too. I am always at a loss on the short works, but you have done about as much as you can within the restrictions. Best wishes for good luck. Ray.

    The restriction of only six words is huge. I rewrote this thought dozens of ways before landing on this order of words. Thanks, Ray, for reviewing this extremely short piece. I appreciate the comments...;-)
