  5. I didn't realized traveler can be spell, "traveller" - I've thought it was the wrong spelling, I learn something new today...

    I sort change the wording a bit to fit in what I wrote, I really like "Knocking on the moonlit door" - that's the line that inspire me to write the piece otherwise I would have skip this week
