Bullet trains and battered walls

Hearts such as mine such as yours should never travel on bullet trains. though the trip allowed but a few hours was never scheduled, never ours w' nowhere to go but forward into a dark unknown. not one to complain w'you tagging along the fare's still the same, I always loved your song. something soothing, calming enveloping me in timbre and tone like softest rain falling o'er battered fortress walls.

I enjoyed this poem and loved the peaceful ending too. Well written. Your writing often holds mystery and leaves plenty for the reader to think about. Well done, my friend :)

a delightful read for me. I prefer traveling slow and taking things in slowly. I loved the tenderness in the last four lines. Well done, sir. Have a pleasant evening, Sara

I like this poem. I, too, like to have time to view scenery. Life is going too fast.
