That He Would Call His Own

He does not wish to be famous or even widely known
But he'd like a place to live in that he would call his own
He sleeps in a disused factory a cold concrete floor for his bed
But he is not bereft of hope of better times of him ahead
A man in his late sixties old age approaching fast
He has fallen on tough times good times for some don't last
But he is quite philosophical not the type to complain
He will tell you what is lost to one becomes another's gain
That times for him were better he never does deny
But the tag of losers attitude to him does not apply
He does look on life's brighter side though financially things for him not well
On negativities he is one who refuses for to dwell
Of his future he feels positive with hope he keeps the faith
For himself he sees better days ahead good times come to those who wait.
