Your poem perfectly sums up the joys of the adventure of hitchhiking. It made me long for the days of yesteryear. Life was so much simpler...and safer. Your great poem put me right into that experience!

A great poem. Wonder narrative, excellent rendition, and above all an ardent believer. And positively philosophic. When you are thirsty…hold out your cup…sun will rise tomorrow.. a marvel!

'Stanza and verse and two terms that are often associated with poetry. Just as the structure of prose consists of sentences and paragraphs, poetry is structured into lines and stanzas. '

I suggest breaking up your poem into stanzas, separated by spaces. I think that is more poet-like, AND it may help people notice rhyming better. bri : )

I'm rereading your Hitchhike, leaving this (and other) comments: 'I noticed after a while that there are many rhyming lines, but the rhyming was done in a way which did not make it obvious to me, which was unfortunate. ' bri : )

'To each their own', in your poem's case the use of capital letters to start each line AND no using punctuation. It is not 'my style', but at least this time it interfered little, if at all, with my reading and understanding of the poem.

For those who despise frogs, master the art of dissection. Constructive criticism is always appreciative. Being new at this art, I welcome any reflective teachings. Thanks for the input.

I see 12 commas, all in the right place. That's enough punctuation for me.
