I love to hear trains rumble by. There is something so comfortingly archaic about them - as if they are emerging from another lifetime. I can remember as a child waving to the engineer as the train passed by my friends and I as we played nearby. Excellent imagery in this one, Sue. I can see why you were the winner here. Blessings, Linda

Excellent presentation, Sue. This is highly effective and I love how it tangentially deals with the difficult 'crossing" Great extended metaphor combined with artwork and creating a good synergy as a whole.
Bravo. No nits. Best of luck.
Love, rd

Hi Sue
This is a great little poem. It's amazing how one moment can turn into a lovely poem. The artwork compliments the poem so well!

A very nice poem filled with imagery that works on two levels - literal and metaphorical. Interesting that you used a train as a metaphor for an episode of life that sees an end - the caboose.

Love it love it love it love it love it! It was really great. The alliteration really gives the feeling of standing by that train track, keeping the rhythm and the flow nicely, despite the fact that the syllables in this kind of poem are quite awkward.

Best of luck to you in the contest my friend. I cast my vote for this little piece of your writing. I could never write anything like this Fibonacci Poem format.

"when you both know it's over" what a great way of writing it. I don't care about Fibonacci...I just like it. Well done.
