Me

From the heart of Texas, to the tip of Michigan...
I live free...I am a Man!

My travels stretch from sea to shining sea...
you never know where I will be.

I have climbed the highest peak...
even swam the Mississip'.

Met the worst and best...
been screwed and blessed.

I leave big steps to fill...
I hurt,and rely on pain pills.

I am a Nomad, not a tramp...
danced with ladys and some vamps.

Been, Artist, Builder, Cowboy, Designer, Father, Gardner, Lover...
Lumberjack, Minister, Nice, Operator, Painter, Pilot, Poet, Poor, Recovered.

Rich, Saved, Sign maker, Song writer, videotographer, welder and winner...
someone you'd like and invite to dinner.

All these I've done...
and the future is yet to be fun !
                                                                 By Perri R. Voge
