Fantasy
As a child I read
That the last train station
In the world was Vladivostok
It was intriguing
The name
The thought
Of trans Siberian express
Snaking across vast land
A thrill and a rush of adrenaline
For someone so young
It is still the same
Far off places attract me
Their names send tingles
Down my spine
I wish to be there
Roam freely between the crowds
Feel life in those far flung places
Meet people and hear their stories
And tell a few of my own
fantasy
nicely written by a dreamer and a traveler.
Far away places with strange-soundin' names
Far away over the sea
Those far away places with the strange-soundin' names
Are callin', callin' me
Goin' to China or maybe Siam
I want to see for myself
Those far away places I've been readin' about
In a book that I took from the shelf
I start gettin' restless whenever I hear
The whistle of a train
I pray for the day I can get underway
And look for those castles in Spain
They call me a dreamer, well maybe I am
But I know that I'm burnin' to see
Those far away places with the strange-soundin' names
Callin', callin' me
