Panagiota Romios Poet Rhyme

Autumn Station

I am here at Autumn Station,
looking down the sun-tinted  
rails of a silvery track.
I find it a burden to live in just 
the present, so!
Give me the future now,
clickety-clack, clickety-clack.

I dream of the first snow blessing
this wondrous earth.
Whilst the crunch of dead leaves,
beneath my feet, doth my agrieved 
autumnal soul, besmirch.

Or, finding my mind, living in days, 
many decades ago. 
And I lose my joy in my present days 
and so.....

I am here at Autumn Station, and
as usual, feeling so inimicablly,lost.
Maybe, I will feel happier when on
my kitchen window pane, 
I see that very first, glorious frost?

(Crunch...sigh.,crunch...sigh!)
