Poetry Analysis

The wanderer talks about his sadness and memories of past times. He thinks about the struggles and the loss of his family. Often, when morning comes, he feels alone and cries about his sadness. He travels far from home, missing his friends and family. He thinks about how life is temporary and the loss of his leader. He looks for wisdom and strength to handle being alone. The wanderer thinks about the fate of people and how tough life is. He ends by saying that faith and patience help overcome hard times.
