Journeyed from
a far off land
through the forest
across the sand
like a restless beast
never at peace
wandered for years
laughter and tears
A family of wanderers
have traveled the path
acrobats and see'ers
jugglers and rats
all move together
for it would seem
safety in numbers
they're often seen
Raven haired beauties
with large almond eyes
pry coins from the menfolk
tell them sweet lies
they stay for awhile
then they move on
when their welcome
is truly gone
misunderstood
for hundreds of years
the travelers have wandered
despite all our fears
the gypsies have lived
like we wish we all could
living and laughing
loving as they should
don't be so hard
on those you don't know
could be a friend
let you in from the cold.
