Winter Commute

The train was stuck;
The tracks were icy.
Weather cold;
Conditions dicey.

Stops and starts
Made travel slow.
Patience was
The way to go.

Home at last,
Relieved but spent
And wond'ring where
The hours went.

Well I hope you wrote this poem during this time. That would have made you almost grateful for the whole ordeal. Peace. :)
