Lessons from Raymond, the homeless man
Who helped prepare me for the road.

Lesson 4: Have lots of homes
Raymond says, “The guy at the thrift store says
I can sleep under his awning.
And many people in this town have said
That I can sleep on their porch.
I am the homeless guy
Who everybody knows.”
And I think, what a mercy in the rain
To have a porch that you can sleep on.
But Raymond spreads it around.
He doesn’t stay too long.
And that seems right.
My home, too, is on the road.
And because I forsake a home
I will find many friends, many homes.
But none too much, too long.
A day here, Two days there, maybe a week,
And then move on.
And what do I offer as payment,
Except myself, a word, a conversation,
And a prayer for those who help me along the road.
