 the gypsy poet

ode to the gypsy poets


Ode to the gypsy poets
with their transcipt words of rhyme
to the heather and the corn field
the barley and the vine

ode to the makeshift homes there
where the sun came up each day
where the rabbits and the foxgloves
greets each new spring borne day

ode to the routes they travelled
with their wayward caravans
with the light of god to guide them
with fate to take their hand

ode to the land that breathed there
the willows and the oak
the songs they sang at daybreak
the natures brand new coats

ode to the Gypsy language
the lore and dreams they told
the fortune telling ladies
the lamp stands made of gold

ode to the labor's offered
the fairgrounds and the dust
the many heartaches suffered
the romance and the lust

ode to their weary burdens
their skills that were renowned
the sands of time will comfort them
in God we know they trust

ode to their intutitions
their wisdom and their joys
the children full of laughter
the dreams of girl and boy
