| Summary | "Rhymes of a Rolling Stone" by Robert W. Service is a collection of poems written in the early 20th century. The work expresses themes of adventure, freedom, and the human experience, often reflecting a deep appreciation for nature and the simple joys of life. Service's style is marked by a robust and energetic tone, capturing the essence of wanderlust and the spirit of the outdoors. The opening of the collection introduces the poet's intent and philosophy. In the "Prelude," Service declares that he writes not about idle dreams or romantic dalliance, but instead, he embraces an "eager joy" in the beauty of life and the call of adventure. The subsequent poem, "A Rolling Stone," captures the speaker's longing for freedom and a carefree existence, emphasizing a connection to the natural world. Through lively imagery and rhythm, the reader is invited to join the poet's journey of exploration and discovery, revealing a love for both the wilderness and the camaraderie found in shared human experiences.
