The Train That Took Them Home

Written by: D. Collins 12/19/14 Being that it is now Christmas time. Two influential people come to mind. Although, they’re not here, I won't shed tears. The world hasn’t a clue of what they did over the years. From their stem you get a person like me. Born to help others, but not instinctively. I went through training on being good to the core. Because, the way I was, caused many to quit before. My Grandmother and her son never gave up on me. Whatever they were seeing, I just could not see. Their repeated repetition and expression of love. Finally seeped in , and eventually woke me up. So, like them, I pass along what I have learned. Hoping to get through, before a life gets burned. By putting in work, I hope that when I am gone. I’ll be on that train that took them home.
