some people are meant to travel by whatever means
cars, trucks, buses, biking,
trains, planes, or hitchhiking
which was one man’s favorite mode
to take off a load
traveling free
across the country
was the only way to go
until one day when
the hitchhiker met a UFO
which offered him a ride
to wherever he wanted to go
so he took a quick tour of the galaxy
to see what wonders he could see
like the red dunes of Mars
and the shooting stars
with their ancient history
but the time soon came
to go back home again
with new traveling tales
of space and cosmic trails
