The Train
I took the train again
to see if you'd be there
all I heard were complaints
from passengers about the delay
to reach the next station
for relatives were waiting there
I wonder
will you be on this train one day?

Your enjambments are superb in this Grace! I enjoyed both the imagery and the sentimentality.

Hi Ahavati, thank you for the RL. and for coming by and reading. 🌹Trains remind me of many things. Final destinations...train to nowhere...😄

It looks spot on for the comp to me
and it's got emotion in it as well,
no mean feat for just eight lines.

Hahaha, this reminds us of a similar situation from our youth, but we never saw her again. Tight

Hey Grace, is that you waiting for the train? If so, it's a lovely station & also a lovely picture (you paint). 😊

Oh yes, she's waiting alright because she has just the right measure of expressed boredom, lol. 😉
