Train

There is a train filled with the thoughts of kissing the sea
It doesn’t stop at a station but at the toe of a boot
It shrieks its wheels to a halt near the cliffs of the Mediterranean
It gazes upon a violent shore
The waves pillage the roman sands
The flame descends
And with a whistle it collapses on the tracks
Healing its rust
Tasting the zephyrs with its skin
Yearning for the ocean
And then
With a thunder-
It rips its metal against the earth.
Coaling onward in a furnace

Never to leave these tracks
Never to kiss the sea

It's pretty neat to think there was a day when that train was actually functional. Now it's just a photo opportunity.

Hi Brian:

Is this train still operational? The antiquated look can make this an interesting decor.

I thought it looked like a great scene as well Debbie Laity , I hope your weekend was enjoyed my friend!

It appears to be very antiquated Maria Gilda Racelis , so I doubt that we could get it back up and running, haha. I hope you had a nice weekend!

Good Tuesday morning Brian England -

I've always been drawn to trains. Both my Grandads worked on the rails. Different positions but I grew up hearing their stories.

Oct 13, 2015 12:07 AM

It seems like everyone loves trains John McCormack , especially kids. I remember being fascinated by them when I was young.

Good Tuesday morning to you too my friend!
