A Tourist or a Traveler?

who are you?
a tourist; or a traveler 
is it both; or none to tell
you like it some; and hate it more
or love it most like an eagle to soar.

who are you?
a traveler; or a tourist
free to fly; on call to risk
you do love it, do you not
when the journey ahead seems terribly fraught.

Who Are You?
a tourist; or a traveler

tourist comes n goes at best he or she takes a souvenir of the visiting place, but a traveler absorbs it all and leaves behind a piece of oneself...loved the way you put it..
