I like also how you echoed the uncertainty “round the bend that always haunts me
Is the open meadow that beckons softly ” to similar scared feelings
“Timidly advancing my forward progress of travel
New chills emerge with each step on the gravel “

Your first one reminds me of a movie I saw not long ago, called, “Vivarium.” As you can imagine it was a surreal horror movie!

I very much enjoyed reading both poems.
