The Train

Chill steel, weathered wood
Tracks lead both north and southward
A whistle – distant

    I like this! It's got a sleepy, nostalgic feel to it, like the observer is both very present in the moment and wistful of the train's passing. Very nice!

    Thank you so much for the kind words, dears! I guess sleepy and nostalgic is how I feel when a train whistle blows. The sound reminds me of the few pleasant train trips I've taken.

    I think what I like so much is how you're able to capture it in such a brief way. I admire that. You have a real gift for these and for drabbles. 🙂
