Sept. 24, 1907
Los Angeles
A First Day in Los Angeles
Roving, roving, ever restless, drifting
On from strand to strand.
Have I see the years slip by me,
Seeking for the promised land.
From the palm trees of Jamaica and
The Golden Spanish main.
To the gray and sullen northland when
The snow was on the plain.
But today I cease from roaming and
My soul is well content
