I am a hippie
It is not about an era
It's not about long hair
Or style of apparel
It's not about taking psychedelics
Those definitions are wrong
I am a hippie
Because I am lost
And out of place
Lost in an age
Of greed and vanity
Lost in a time
Out of place with my spirit
I am a free spirit
A flower child
A wandering nomad
Both the artist and the muse
Always searching
For joy and beauty
In an ugly world that's full of sadness
I wear flowers in my hair
Not as a fashion statement
But as a political statement
I believe in peace
Not war
I believe in love
Not hate
I believe in wisdom
And integrity
And truth
And compassion
And honour
And if those beliefs make me a hippie
Then I will wear the label with pride
I am proud to be counted among
Those who think for themselves
Those who strive every day
To make this world a better place

I like to write, if that makes me a writer, then rock on!
I started writing as a child because I ran out of stuff to read. So, I only write stuff that I like. If you like it too, awesome! Enjoy! ^_^
