Sitting on a Greyhound awaiting to depart
Memphis being the start
My Greyhound bus ticket has no specific destination with only “Anywhere Bound”
The feeling is where to find the possibilities in where to settle
Journey into a new life
No fiddle faddle
Reclining in my seat, and just imagine my life through the off ramp in discovering my destiny
Miles upon miles will give me plenty time thinking while
Observing the various trucks, cars and other bus coaches as I view through the bus picture windows
Destinations in so many directions, North, South, East and West
Remembering an old slogan, “GO WEST YOUNG MAN”
There’s much to chose, but don’t dwell on confused
As the Greyhound bus wheels roll while kicking up dust and acceleration
My journey is the turning point in what is to come
Goals centered in my head in how to follow through
Destiny in control
Perhaps a town or major city being my objective
I am very subjective
Sense of commitment
Courage to move on
Through the days and nights
What settlement is in sight
Greyhound bus, show me the way
My journey in the horizon
People and places
Any place for me to be
Just relax and wait and see
Mysteries of my journey to anticipate
A place I can call home and appreciate
Greyhound bus stops here and there
A journey I experience that I can only share
Memphis was my start
I might be San Antonio where I might disembark
Texas wind and a Horse ride
Adventure that is what the state will provide
Fulfillment I see in my face
Achievement to follow
San Antonio is the place
Just for me
A place to see
Dwell and acquaint
San Antonio is my take away
New life and friendship
I have arrived
Destiny control
That Greyhound bus helped me to be bold
Behold
