~wide Open Spaces Comments

Lovely poem! There was a popular Country Western song entitled, Wide Open Spaces, that I also like, so my mind went to that first. I love the imagery you used to describe what a wide open space was to you. It was easy to imagine myself in those places, especially the ocean. Thanks for sharing.

If given a choice I would select the wide open spaces any day as opposed to the closed in city life. Here out in the country where I reside there is lots of room to breathe. You can take long walks without worrying about automobiles. Go for a stroll on the beach and watch the waves or just sit on the banks of a river and watch the boats sail by. City life can sometimes be nothing but strife. Enjoyed this write Adeline.

I live on the outskirts of leeds in England, where I live we have a lot of open countryside, some really beautiful sights, but go 15 miles to leeds city centre and it's like your in another world. A fantastic poem.

There is alot of soul in this poem, it's as big as all out-of-doors, and I just love it. Reminds me very much of Everett Ruess who prior to disappearing somewhere in the southwest in the 1930's wrote such beautiful words like these. A stunning poem.

Thank you, Adeline. I enjoyed this poem for its images and its architecture.

A well pictured place by words and pleasure to read with rhyme scheme, great piece,

wonderful poem, I am from Texas and I have also lived in the great Mojave desert. This poem brings it all home.

You have created a master piece and I was on this journey with you and saw many beautiful places that I have never been before, but have only read about. Thanks for taking me on this trip. Forever your friend, Lynn
