"Travelin' Man"

Something seems so strange
In that no one worries no more.....

'Bout the possibilities of what
Another can be

Something seems amiss....
That no one returns common courtesy 

In voice
Or with the commodity of a smile

Something seems so dark
With brother against brother 

With no one staying together 
And children reared by hollowed souled mothers

Meet the modern day travelin' man
The final light upon these dark hills

With voice drowned out by all 
That is mute banal and shrill 

Greet yesterday's travelin' man
Who'll drive till he finds that....

Other soul filled light, glow upon 
Those dark hills

Greet the present's travelin man
Who has found a home

For after weary travel, he never gave up
Piercing our modern times, as dispair unraveled 

*An ode to those who seek the giving people in life! For those that can kindly but needlingly reject those that cannot foster growth compassion empathy openness forgiveness and understanding. For those while weary from traveling in our modern days don't quit 'till the find the lovely people that can break the fear and be free to give of themselves! To those that seek that collective group of life givers who foster growth in others until everyone's final days!
