'Used To Be A Pilgrim' Poem by Michael Micmac Mccrory

'Used To Be A Pilgrim'



‘Used to be a pilgrim’

I used to be a pilgrim, with a searching mind
Searching for a better world to live in
A world with a caring’ loving humankind
I found a world of war, gluttony and sin

I used to be a pilgrim, looking for the truth
Filling my mind with knowledge and fact
Education was the meat of my youth
Until I found, life was not an act

I used to be a pilgrim, looking for love
Taking love where and when I found it
I enjoyed the push and shove
Free love, I found I didn’t fit

I used to be a pilgrim, but I’m not searching no more
Now I spend my days thanking the man above
I’ll leave pilgrimage to the students of folklore
Now that I’ve found Noireen and true love
