Mighty is the train, do you
stop here, can I board with
my doggie, oh so dreary are
these rainy nights
For I am running,
I know not where
Distance me from my past,
so that I might find love the
way it is supposed to be...
where people dance in the
rain and are happy to be
Oh! my thoughts be quiet,
Please
for I do not hear the train
running, only its beams of
light through the
mist the wind is blowing in
Is this in any way a sign?
Suddenly I felt a jarring...
as I was being awakened
from a deep winter's sleep
A nightmare, My beloved
Mother was to tell...as she
hugged my neck and gave
me a kiss...comfortable in
my home of plenty with
my faithful doggie near by
So, beware all of You, let
the terror of
the Night Train pass
Knowing there is a Love
Train to catch as the
whistle blows,
and the conductor roars
All aboard!

a draw to other we often don't know what exactly
and that is part of its lure and charm.
Fine, sustained metaphor with upbeat ending.

I hope you caught your Love Train.
