Brave New World (Poem)

POEM
--- I really wanted to do a poem about exploration and advancement of humanity and suddenly I remembered that quote from the Tempest with the Oh Brave New World. From there I decided I had to do this.
Tell me what you guys think- if you think somethings sound awkward as I am kinda new to the whole poem thing.

I need a hint to follow. Is this about searching for new space to live while leaving the old to our sons? About excepting fates we cannot change? I do get that poems don't necessarily need a clear cut message everytime, but I'm having a hard time drawing in image in my head from this.
Sounds pretty when I speak aloud though-

It's basically the whole idea that its the journey, not the end. As we continue to explore new fields, new routes, and new lands, it's not the actual physical thing we leave for the future generations, but rather the path to get there.
Once those paths are set, it is up to the next generation to continue forward into the great unknown.
That said, the 1st part is basically the reason behind our thirst for adventure: to seek more. We're never happy with where we are and we never will- that is what lets humanity continue to advance.
