The picture is certainly a super pull-in to your words. I enjoyed reading this from you, A maze can be such a scary place too many wrong turns and no way to correct them especially when fear becomes the host. Thank you for this one - Dinah

The blue gate sound so soothing a spiritual retreat somewhere above the frey... somewhere above the clouds... landing in peace devoid of pain and you welcome that day. yours, di

Dare I say it...this is aMAZE-ing! I have often felt this way..when there is a fork in the road and you have to make a decision that's life changing. I wonder if I can find the right gate...happens to us all. You've captured the human condition in a unique way
God bless

Hi Pam, a very well written poem in aabb form and a good use of metaphor throughout. Your final couplet sounds ominous. '
Won't have to return to all of my strife.
I'm out of the maze that people call life'...... sounds like the grim reaper called so I know this is not biographical, LOL. Very well written with a smooth flow. Warm regards Dorothy x

In my opinion, a striking and relevant poem, which in some measure, includes us all. The rhyme and rhythm are even and unforced and move smoothly from stanza to stanza, in well constructed, fluid structure and beautiful presentation. The image represents the verse perfectly...

Excellent metaphor for life, Pam. Your artwork attachment definitely sets up a claustrophobic feeling, at least for me it does.

Another nicely rhymed and metred poem from you quill.

You write em up good.

A beautiful poem. I love the way you incorporated heaven in the second stanza, freed of pain and disease and finally peace. Life is definitely a maze, and if we don't choose our words and actions carefully, we might not never be freed.

Thank you for sharing! It was a pleasure to read it!
All the best,
Monica

I really, really like this poem.. I love the metaphor you assign to mazes, as being our lives...we each our on a journey, most of us, who don't even know where we are going a great deal of the time..we get lost,make the wrong turn, have trouble navigating through life in general.. and how the only freedom, is when we leave this thing called 'Life.' How then, peace, serenity and love will envelop and surround you - and never have to traverse a maze again... beautifully done.. love the allegorical use of the maze to illustrate life, death, and ultimately to rebirth..

Your lovely verse is well rhymed and well written.
I like that it speaks of the maze of life with many turns along the way.
And yes, there is only one way out.

Hi there;

The tale told within the lines of your poem is a great way to describe the path we take through life. Are we on the right road? Why is this roadblock in our way? If there is only one way out of the maze, why is it so hard to find?

Well done, and wonderful artwork to go with the piece,

~patty~
