Lessons from Raymond, the homeless man
Who helped prepare me for the road.

Lesson 5 - Count on Miracles
“Let go of what you do not need,” he said.
“And go to the place you feel.
I have take my shoes off on one side of the bridge
Because they were falling off my feet,
Walked across the bridge
And found another pair waiting for me.
I have felt like going beneath a bridge
To find a woman there, drunk,
And delivering a baby.
Several times, I have gone to a place, not knowing why
To discover a person dying. I told them it was time to go
And they were gone within the hour.
It has happened enough times
That I have begun to think of myself
As a kind of angel of death.
Trust the voice that leads you from within
And you will be provided for,
You will be used
By the unseen hand.
