The Old Pilgrim Poem by Tony Adah

The Old Pilgrim



Be an orphan of the world
Desire all, get none
Thy peace eat fatherless
And motherless one.
A church mouse of yore
Great orphan in need
Absent in the kidnapper's den
Rejoice in nature's duty
Driver of your flies

Home with joy
In the bounties of dearth
Where seekers of worth loathe
Dread of wants in the hands
The orphan beholds
Cheer up old pilgrim
Thy cocoon is safe.
