I wrote this poem about a year ago, and found it on a scrap of paper while cleaning my room. I hope you like it, and be sure to review it if you have any thoughts or criticism!


A wandering traveler with a heart of gold

In a limitless box of blue

A universe waiting, possibilities endless

And adventures galore to see through

But he's a poor, wretched thing in that old box of blue

You see, he is always alone

He lost them, they say - yes, they're all gone for good

And it shakes him right down to his bones

But he throws on a smile, a scarf or a hat

And some celery pinned to his coat

So "C'mon! Allons-y!" and he holds out his hand

To whisk you to planets remote

He's a poor, lonely thing, just floating through space

Yes, it's sad... but whatever you do:

If you see him, don't let the old wanderer take

You away in his cursed box of blue.
