"The Wanderer's Lust"


"The Wanderer's Lust"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr. MD

 I

In my age I have seen

Wonder crumble and stars fade

I have heard songs pass

And stories die within the age


II

I am a wanderer looking for such things

The small trinket

The missing language

The missing links


III

And like all things worthwhile

They are satisfying to find

The lost wonders of man

I am looking for a future while living in the past.
