I AM CALLED THE TRAVELING MAN...DONT STAY IN ONE PLACE LONG


ALWAYS ON THE MOVE...NO ONE PLACE DO I GET TO CALL HOME


 


SOME HAVE THOUGHT IT IS BECAUSE OF VIET NAM


A FEW EVEN THOUGHT FROM THE LAW I RAN


 


THERE ARE THOSE WHO THINK A LOVE HAD GONE BAD


WLL SAY THAT BEING WITH OUT LOVE DOES MAKE ME SAD


 


I DID NOT CHOOSE THIS LIFE...IT CHOSE ME


TO SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL OUR GREAT LAND CAN BE


 


i HAVE SEEN THE PURPLE MOUNTAINS AND THE LUSH GREEN VALLYS BETWEEN


THE GOLDEN FIELDS OF GRAIN THE PRETTIEST I HAVE EVER SEEN


 


THE GREAT SMOKIES IN THE EAST AND THE GRAND TETONS IN THE WEST


OTHER GREAT MOUNTAINS WHERE THE EAGLES NEST


 


EVERY WHERE I GO THERE IS MOTHER NATURE TO SEE


HER BEAUTY IS SOMETHING WE ALL AGREE


 


NOW WHEN YOU THINK OF THIS TRAVELING MAN


REALIZE I AM JUST ENJOYING ALL OF LIFE I CAN

I know that gypsy spirit well. I know the spirit, the curiosity that compels some to travel but...I always look forward to home. It's the little things I miss when I travel...my art...my old chair and my bed...not to mention my family back in Savannah, a whole bunch.

Your poetry is like my grandfathers'. He never stayed too long in one place...always looking for something.

Great poem about the gypsy spirit, Ron.
Susan

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
