My Train of Thought

In the quiet of twilight, when thoughts softly stray,

I find myself often in a curious delay.

The train of my musings, swift and free,

Embarks on its journey, sometimes without me.

 

Oh, the moments I ponder, with a wry little smile,

As my mind starts to wander a wandering mile.

Ideas take flight, like birds in the sky,

While I stand at the station, just waving goodbye.

 

In the landscape of memories, both near and afar,

I chase after thoughts like a falling star.

They shimmer and glisten, then vanish from sight,

Leaving behind an echo of light.

 

Yet, in these gaps, there's a gentle grace,

A pause in the race, a serene, sacred space.

For wisdom resides in the still, silent air,

And sometimes, just sometimes, I meet myself there.

 

So let the train travel, let it sail on the breeze,

Through forests of dreams and memory seas.

For in every departure, a new path is found,

And in each quiet moment, life's wonders abound.
