Homeless

I’m a wanderer by design
I meander about the town
Not trying to refine anything
Just spreading my life around

Just looking for conversation
I smile to break the ice
For me that’s how it flows
I wander around in life

No path to trace me from
Or course to follow me from
I listen talk and laugh about
Anything that might become

Yes I’m a wanderer by design
And of course I drift away
I guess one day I’ll hang a sign
“Done wandering here to stay”
