Blue Line Blues (poem) by Felix LeRoy Perry on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on June 18, 2007

I rode the bus home on weekends from the time I started attending the blind school and through most of my college years... I met some very interesting people on those trips home and back... wouldn't trade those experiencing for the world.. and yes, it is sad.

Felix, all walks of life travel by bus. Funny, how interesting some people come to be in a strage way. Almost like reading a story, or watching a series on television. Enjoyed this write.

I wish I could take the bus to go anywhere, but it's too darn expensive here, and Burleson (where I live) doesn't really have a bus line. So I have to walk everywhere on crutches. Very annoying, especially if it's raining or cold out! Wonderful write, Fee, well done!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

Midnight, Blue Line Bus to Halifax full of yawns and sleeping nodding heads traveling through time, fantasy and imagination.

The midnight run seems a bit scary to me. It's probably just as seedy during the day time too. I could picture each one though from my past. Lady J welcome back

Hi Fee,
Traveling the roads of the U.S. during my childhood, I used to create games of seeing how many different state license plates I would observe during the trip. And, at out-of-hand sporting events, etc., I have often gazed at people, wondering their backgrounds, envisioning their lives, etc. In our age of busyness, these quiet times of reflection are a wonderful gift.

Brilliant piece of work. I enjoyed this, very much.

The reality of this poem is amazing Fee. My grandmother use to take me on trips when I was a child and it was always by way of the Greyhound. She didn't drive and was afraid of trains and airplanes. We traveled all over and I loved every minute of it. You opened up my memory bank once again my friend.
Hugs,
Marcia
