seize the poem prompt: silence
.
My Response to the Prompt:
miss hearing
middle of night call
promptly at 2 AM
no train whistles at crossing
silence where comforting sound
once rode the rails
.
——
Note:
The trains no longer run on this track
except for the Downeast Scenic Railroad
a fully restored operating railroad that runs
tourists excursions on this very track two
blocks from my home… and yes.. I can hear
the whistle blowing those days !
.
Visit their facebook page to see all the fun
children of all ages can have with the train.
