Interesting how some readers can read into a poem something that wasn't exactly on the poet's mind but could very well fit into the narrative. California gold rush? Never went through my mind, but you've just added another dimension to this poem. Coming to think of it, this whole business of publishing your poetry turns out to be an interactive thing, doesn't it? You write a poem and it appears to have a finished form, but readers actually expand it! Thanks Bri.
