No permanent home no mobile phone he doesn't need any of that All that he needs, all that he wants carried in a bag on his back No hot morning shower to brighten his day just a dip in an icy cold stream He wanders the byways and small country roads seeking to fufill his dreams He needs no soft bed under a roof just a grassy bed under the moon Far does he travel the small country roads, he needs no bus train or tram He's quite content with the life that he chose, the life of a wandering man No beer or fine wines will he ever drink, for him cool clean water is fine His dinner food that nature provides so no worries about earning a wage His life is an unfinished book, each new day the start of an unwritten page He's content living this way under the sun and the stars He knows it will end as for all men it must when he finally writes the last page

The Wanderer
No permanent home no mobile phone he doesn't need any of that All that he needs, all that he wants carried in a bag on his back No hot morning shower to brighten his day just a dip in an icy cold stream He wanders the byways and small country roads seeking to fufill his dreams He needs no soft bed under a roof just a grassy bed under the moon Far does he travel the small country roads, he needs no bus train or tram He's quite content with the life that he chose, the life of a wandering man No beer or fine wines will he ever drink, for him cool clean water is fine His dinner food that nature provides so no worries about earning a wage His life is an unfinished book, each new day the start of an unwritten page He's content living this way under the sun and the stars He knows it will end as for all men it must when he finally writes the last page
I've reposted this in response to Travelers Hobo poem, I've called him a wanderer and all countries have them
