Review
Rambling Man is Moving on is the second of series of two books of poetry by Andy Siddle.The first book, called Distant Ramblings, was the product of over thirty years of writing poetry.The book takes its name from the famous Rhythm and Blues guitarist J J Cale and the lyrics to some of his music. Andy has been a great fan of Rhythm and Blues music for several decades.The poetry in this book is mostly contemporary, sometimes of historical interest, sometimes New Age culture and sometimes classical; but always trying to give a little something to please everyone.
The Roamin' Road
no where to go and a bottle of gin,
who ever said a Tiger would stay and just sit,
when the road winds on for a traveller to hit.
Roads of the distance are a man's place to be,
never stay long there are places to see,
a man wasn't made to sit on a couch,
with a beer gut diction and a permanent slouch.
So the village on the hill top is where I'll be gone,
and even when there I will not stay long,
for the world is so wide and the oceans so deep,
don't cage me in my soul you shan't keep.
Weep will I not for the places that I leave,
time travels on and these dusty roads heave,
as the Heavens bake the tarmac with the midday sun,
get my bags packed there is travel to be done.
