this short poem could be taken in a lot of different directions for one's life and living. This was a well written poetic voice that I enjoyed reading and responding to... John

Pier, steer, here. You have rhymed these words. well done. This hi-coo thingy has hidden depths and I get the deeper meaning. Yes, life is a series of choices and we don't know if we've made the right one til it's all over and done with.

Good thought provoking poem in short form. I think we all go through that in life especially when we have no real spiritual guidance. That was true in my case until I was in my mid twenties. Since then I have learned to trust on a higher power to steer me.

After reading this poem I have decided to go boating. I didn't have the least inclination to do so until now. You have changed my thought patterns. OKAY, that didn't happen. This was a nice five - seven - five that poses the question -- What now? I ask it daily.

This work has reached the exceptional level

i like it because the second line, yet I know not how to steer--to me is very humble but more so accurate and blatantly true.

the first line brings intimidate vividness to the scene and the last line leaves me thinking very provoking great job.

'The Boat.' It most certainly is always open to the reader to decide what he does with certain work. Interpretation is the word. On the whole, not bad.
