The Traveler's Mile

The man walks the lonely mile

though he's buried six feet under

he will be here for a while

his death is no peaceful slumber

The poor soul's life is said and done

his friends and family payed respects

the road ahead is not fun

for many scholars his fate perplex

through the darkness goes our traveler

the doctors could do no more

do you think he'll find a passenger

soon his brother will travel past the border

he thinks of humming a pleasant tune

as his body starts to prune
