THE GREAT MOVE HOME

Well i went to met my homeless friend today to ride or walk with her back to THE HOUSE where she is going to live in my yard in a tent, she has decided to give up her homeless title to live here, i certainly hope that i am doing the right thing i did not ask the wimmin of the group if it was OK for her to move here because after all i am renting THE HOUSE from G..... not them, i guess if they don't like her being here they will voice it I'm pretty sure. So i caught the bus to the I-95 underpass to met her, she was there and seemed ready to go, she asked me if i would sit with her for a few minuets to say good by to the place and to leave of all things some incense there burning so that the next womon who live there would find peace as she had, i thought that was very sensitive and kind of her. While we were sitting there another womon walked up to talk to her and to say goodbye, they chatted for a bit and then my friend said to her you can have this space if you want it is a very good one, the other womon thanked her and asked if she could have the thin and funky looking mattress my friend gave it to her and also gave her 3 cigs, they hugged each other and said good bye. I thought to myself what a wild wild world we all live in, here are two wimmin who seem to care for each other calling themselves homeless and seeming to have all the love in their hearts for each other and yet....well i just find that very touching. My friend asked her friend if she would come visit her sometimes at her new place, she told her that she did not know exactly where it was but as soon as she was settled she would come up for her, they both agreed to this and we left. My homeless friend does have a name her name is Sa..y, so i said Sa..y you want to wait for the bus and she asked if it was OK if we walked? ok by me and so we did. It was a lovely walk one that i had not had before now, she showed me places that i had never noticed in my past walks or rides,for example i had never noticed the pomagrante trees near the sidewalks there and they were full of fruit, i did not know how to tell if they were ripe but she did and told me that they would be ripe in another week or so and that we could come and get some but that we had to be sure to keep noticing because everyone in the area were waiting for them to ripen. She showed me a neighborhood grocery store that specialized in fruits from the Caribbean Island and a little restaurant that had very good home cooked foods and always had a vegetarian meal to offer. We had a great walk and i felt so good walking with a womon who was so familiar with the streets i really felt safe with her, and that was truly a strange feeling for me. And so slowly we walk to THE HOUSE, and she said the wildest thing to me she said i want to thank you for helping me make THE GREAT MOVE HOME.
