Greener Pastures

Feeling the rumble down the line, greener pastures calling me there. Daydreams of love and golden times, feeling the rumble down the line, conjures visions of love divine. Grooming the need to go somewhere, feeling the rumble down the line, greener pastures calling me there. Feeling the rumble down the line, calling me home from far away. Taking to heart the trembling sign, feeling the rumble down the line, my heart transcends all space and time. It speaks the joys of yesterday, feeling the rumble down the line, calling me home from far away. © Aug 2010 Charles Henderson For Nette's "Afterglow" contest

This is a great take on Nette's photo. The young girl feeling the call to go home from the rumble of the railroad tracks. She looks as though she needs the greener pastures to calm her weary heart. Very nice! Great triolet and entry for the contest. Gwendolen
