The train in silent majesty
Easing along till it ceased
Settling in by the window
I await the visual feast
The train beginning to rumble
Cantering gently into its stride
The scene begins to emerge
Carved in two by the tracks divide
In the distance a settled picture
Rippling clouds in a perfect blue
Unlike the immediate chaos
Blighting a bountiful view
Deciphering what’s before me
In honesty more an attempt
Cocooned in the blur of colour
My senses begin to relent
Daydreaming I begin to wonder
Awaiting the journeys end
The train begins to slow
Yet this stop I must transcend
The beauty of this place
Enveloped me in a breath
Stealing the air from within me
So enticing in it’s undress
At once tranquil and exciting
The doors open to reveal more
Crumbling fast I want to wander
So powerful is the rapport
Alas I remain seated
Eyes down to stay calm
This is not my destination
I play with the ticket in my palm
