Ahh... skimming your other work, I can tell you're a brilliant writer.

The rhyming: It's interesting. I would never have tried it (I'm old-fashioned, maybe? I should probably get over that, eh? Take chances and all that... Oh, well), but you did it convincingly. I didn't even notice the rhyming at first, which is good, because it means that it wasn't incredibly forced or awkward. Good job.

I really like the subject matter (for lack of a better term). It makes me stop and think a bit. I like that )

In the first stanza, you do a wonderful job of setting the stage, so to speak. I especially like the "questing footsteps".

I have a question, though- If he was the only one of his kind, how will he love and create life? I could be taking this too literally, I suppose- that he's alone in the sense of having no friends.

Anyway, great writing )

, I like it. Not as much as some of your other poems, but I kinda groove on this. It's deep, and makes me want to go back over again and read it slower, which is always a good thing. You've still got it. Keep it up, ya._Ahrar

Absolutely beautiful and so wise. I love joining this young one on his journey for self-fullfillment and purpose, and his confusion with relation to other human beings. It has such a gentle and young quality to it, and I wish I could return to that time of innocence.
