Bill, this is a great poem for the contest. I enjoyed the
story. I can understand a person wanting to die on the land
they love and not being in a hospital. I bet your love your farm. That must be wonderful to enjoy God's creations. Good luck in the contest.

Not only a story, but a tender and moving story. I think all of us yearn to die among the things that have formed our life. Well written and presented. This should do very well in your contest. Regards, Bill

What a great story to read. My heart leaped with joy upon reading because he died the way he wanted it, up in the field, going back to his homeplace.

Comment from Amicus
This is a poignant and well told story in a poem, Bill. I enjoyed the read and was moved by the sentimental tale of one man's last walk. I think we all want to end our lives in our own element where we are most comfortable and it was good to hear a tale of someone who actually was granted this simple wish.
Good poem. Good luck in the competition.

Cedar,
your poem is very well written with great descriptive writing and soil rhyme. Your art work is lovely. Your words not only tell a story, but are rich in imagery painting a picture in the readers head. You make effective use of the poetic devices alliteration and metaphor in your writing. I especially enjoy the metaphor you used "surrendered to death." What a moving poem that's excellent. I wish you good luck in the writing prompt contest to Tell a story in a poem.
Melissa.

To Cedar,
In this writing prompt you have implicited a lonely but happy soul that emcompasses his final steps on earth as a blessing and a gift to those he had left to make it on their own.
A selfless act you have imputed with grace and in all humility.
