This caught my attention because the title is the first line in my own poem, Eden Quest-I love the play on well known sayings.(though in line 4 you may want to change 'was' to 'were')This has some very unique phrasings that work so well.This piece says a lot.I especially like the ending.Great poem

Hey, I've noticed how many of my poems you have read and commented on. Wanted to thank you for that. Also, I think you have some fabulous stuff. Has the thought of letting a few publishers look at your work ever crossed your mind? I like the anecdotal value of this poem and the expressions you used, whether similies or metaphors it seem's you've got imagery cracked! Lots of love and respect, Tom
