This poem has an overwhelming theme of travel and motion in it.
The first and last stanzas mirror each other which is a nice way to frame the poem as well as provide a feeling of resolution or "bringing it full circle" in a sense. The repetition of key phrases helps to emphasize the point well. Having the title of the poem appear as the last word in the text is a nice touch.
I feel like the poem could use some development in its structural presentation to better suit the themes it discusses.
