Train Love

Swaying, 
Rocking, 
Like water against a boat
Her unfamiliar fragrance snatches sense with every whiff.
Tall and exquisite.

I sat watching 
Her slender frame stately set
against traveling commonalities
Who, in comparison,
were a mere eyesore
 than equivalent.

Had I been an artisan, 
Canvases would walk and speak

Up, she looked
 Our eyes entwined—
An instant connection,
Train Love.
