The Vagabond
I am a vagabond spirit
knowing what I seek
traveling from place to place
desperately wanting peace.
My travels have sent me
where other spirits have not been
taking me from ecstasy
to the depths of despair
all in a youthful year.
My spirit followed a call to prayer
which ended after trying years,
and I was left
rudderless in an endless sea.
Then what seemed by chance
a course was given me
the work of helping others
guided my spirit through the waters
no longer lost, still searching for my peace.
Then I married, had a family
my spirit soared with worth
until illness took my wife
and left my spirit drifting in the sea.
So I floated, losing faith,
still wondering if my spirit would
find that special place
where peace could touch
my wandering spirit soul.
Again I was blessed with
my daughters love and my grandchild
I met another lady who
loved me and I loved her.
Yet I wandered still.
As I grew older and more unable
to live so many lives,
my spirit found the peace it sought
it was no special place.
I await the end
of my many journeys
treasuring all the turns
I took to find the peace
to satisfy my wandering soul.
