Gypsy Poetry

I no longer have a mother
Or a black-haired father.
I have been left alone
Like a fallen tree.

But that tree
Is not quite alone:
The cold wind blows
And touches its branches.

A lovely, poignant poem. The gypsy life can be very hard, yet few of them would want to give it up. Thank you for posting this.
