Should have tried yesterday’s diet!

When he picked up
all his troubles
and placed them all
in kit bag,
he could not travel,
he could not move.
His past was
just too heavy,
too large,
too awkward
to bring.

I love your poem & I relate to it quite a bit. In my 30's, I worked with a young lady who had a dream about me, saying I was dragging bags & bags & bags of crap along behind me (in her dream). She musta been psychic, becuz she was right. I love the way you address this playfully (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

...and so he let it fall away, gratefully. I know this too well. Beautifully written and themed poem Andrew. There comes a point when we just have to realize that the baggage is not worth the price. Kudos!
