He Heard the Train

He heard the train

A distant sound in dark of night

He heard the train

A lonely cry, a sad refrain

Like ghostly specters taking flight
Invisible to human sight

He heard the train

Happy weekend and thank you for sharing your wonderful poetry with us once again Steven. I am going to try and write some entries for the contests this weekend also. It is still so hot and humid here but we might get some relief next week. Wishing you a weekend filled with joy and inspiration. Love, Carol
