All That Nature has Created, for me.

I am just a lonesome traveller,

living in this world of man’s sin.

Seen bad, good, the ugly;

where does it all begin?

I’ve been taken advantage of,

been lied to, and been broke.

had pockets full of tin.

Been cheated on, dog hungry, stuffed full,

been left in a ditch,

my hat caved in.

Only Nature and I,

know the Places I’ve bin.

My name ,

it’s been dragged through mud ,

and more.

I’ve been through the school, of “Hard Knocks“

more than once, more than twice.

Every time, I just pick myself up,

dust myself off,

and start all over again.

Nature created, I am not self-made,

father gave life, mother carried me.
Who I am, society shaped. 

I’ve been around a a goodly while,

Come a long way;

still have a long way to go.

Should I live ten thousand years,
I never will meet, I never will see,

all that nature has created, for me.
