This is a poem shared by Cattt in one of her comments, so I moved it here. (Her comment can be found at : http://www.tckid.com/group/rant-ramble/#comment-9140 )

Home is where my hat is.

She has no home,
No home she calls her own.
She has only a hat,
A perfect Black Top hat.

This hat she places,
Where ever she may be,
As if to say, that today,
This will be her home.

But what of tomorrow
Nobody knows, not you nor I
Where this Top hat will sit,
This hat, so worn, but so young?

Where am I from,
They may ask.
Never can I answer,
I, the nomad.

Where is my home, you ask?
Look for a Black Top hat,
Look for a Black Top hat worn and old,
Where it sits, is my home, for now.

Black will this top hat be,
worn at the edges,
Young with old experience,
Symbolic of what I never had.

Much has this hat seen,
Much has this hat yet to see,
Many places has it been,
Many places has it yet to be.

I take you with me,
For I have no home,
For I was born a Nomad,
And you are my coat of arms.

Black are you, my top hat.
No picket fence shall you have,
For you are a nomad,
Both doomed and blessed by wanderlust.

I have no home
No one country I call my own
Just my Black Top hat,
The centerpiece of my home.

    I love that poem, Cat! Replace the “hat” with “red shoes”, and that would describe my life. :)

    Oh, and I love your name too. lol

    heh Brice I’m sure you could tweak it for yourself, I won’t mind..

    Thanks :D I came up with that name alll by myself!!

    yeah I don’t write often just when I’m confused… about an issue, not something ‘logical’ like long division… jeez if anyone writes a poem about long division I’m going to run screaming…

    Sorry, tangents and all :)
