Wayne Bryant

I was raised in Jacksonville, Florida. I attended Terry Parker High School. I started writing poetry when I was 12 years old. I spent most of the 1980's traveling across North America as a hobo in a boxcar. I did this of my own choosing. I didn’t consider myself to be a bum because I worked everywhere I went. I saw a side of America most of the world never sees. Many homeless I met while traveling were veterans from the Vietnam War. Some of these vagabonds were once high ranking Army officers. I met lieutenants, captains and even a major. These men could not adjust to a normal life after the atrocities they witnessed during the war. I decided to write about the stories I heard while traveling with them and some of the things I personally witnessed. You don't have to see angels to feel their presence. I have often felt the presence of angels near when I was in danger. Read "Why Me Lord" by Wayne Bryant and you will see what I mean. Can an animal be an angel? You might be surprised at what I found out. That is covered in my book also. I live on the river and enjoy fishing and boating when I can find the time. Thank you, Wayne Bryant.
