I was born to be a gypsy. I just know it!


Poem Artwork

Train whistle calling thrice
Take me to where it's nice
Leave all my cares behind
Hearing you soothes my mind

Busy that engineer
Salt mine is very near
Girl with umbrella see
Mine runs efficiently

Hark! There she goes again
Salt! Salt and one Amen
Whistle blows day and night
Chugging with all her might

One day I'll jump a freight
My soul a gypsy fate
Perhaps I'll camp near you
Scary? I thought so too

From "The Golden Girls"
Rose: 'Thrice' is a word...
Dorothy: So is 'intrauterine'! It doesn't belong in a song!
Rose (singing): 🎵Miami you're cuter than an intrauterine...🎵
LOL!

When I picture Gypsies, I think of wagon trains as they traveled throughout Europe, and even in the United States during earlier times. When it comes to riding the rails under boxcars that were locked tight, I think about my uncle taking to them and the hobo camps that cropped up around the country along the tracks near streams for water. No place for a woman, although some women did.

But if you want to be a free spirit and ride trains all the way to the salt mines, be my guest. I'd much rather pick you up along the highway thumb tripping. And give you three squares and a bed at a local motel on our journey. ;-)

The soul of a gypsy, or the heart of a hobo? Loved the write, It reminded me of the Arlo Guthrie song, Hobo's Lullaby.

1st thought - word - Wanderlust !

2nd thought - lyics of Lee Marvin song:
“I was born under a wandering star...”

Come with me, two peas in a pod. I've been on that hobo train most of my life and it's great.
