.:Railway Extasis:.
It’s just amazing how much you can see
If you open your eyes wide,
If you look beyond the reflection of you in the glass.
It seems as if you are going fast,
But when your mind focuses,
You see beyond the blur of the speed.
Dad’s teaching him how to ride.
Oh my god!
There is just one wheel on the back!
“Hey granny, what is that!?”
The excitement of her first ride,
So much to see, learn, observe, ask about!
The lover that hops on,
Waiting anxiously for the last stop,
Where the rest of his heart waits.
People in and out, in, out, squished up.
Many with buzzing bugs in their ears,
Others absorbed in a juicy page of who knows what.
It’s just amazing how much you can see;
If you take those minutes from the speed
Just to observe.

I like this reflective poem, Vale! Very interesting... I think your reading and our discussions on Fahrenheit are sinking in! I entered your blog to get your reaction to the radio program and haven't found it. That's unfortunate because it means you're getting a 0 on this assignment. What happened?
