As One Keeps Traveling

As one keeps traveling, 
One keeps marveling;
Little cause to be sniveling, 
Still less to be driveling 
For the stupendous much one had seen; 
Not anymore The Horn “Unequivocal Green.” 

Yes, for having met with a lot, 
For the most part encountering the hot, 
Naturally mocking what one had got. 

A richness that from the eyes draws mist, 
Childish stuff ones previous treasured list
And, I swear, jotters of some journalist.

Such traveler, though, keeps ageing, 
His system wordlessly raging, 
As it continues to seem a Methuselah’s 
Or like A Drunk’s often in cellars. 

Who could escape seeming weather-beaten
And the unluckier traveler rust-eaten?
