Big Train

Composer: Roger D. Linder
Saw the biggest train today Did not hitch a ride Only stopped it just to say Would you be my guide? Off you go to parts unknown Just like my soul wanders Need a path to call my own One I shall not squander Only time will tell my tale Faced with immaturity When the clock sounds its last bell Lost in my obscurity Words, they fall from who knows where Cannot form a sentence Truth I find too much to bear Lacking in repentance Train is moving down the track Full in forward motion What I seek lies far beyond Today, it's just a notion

Commentary
I actually saw the Big Boy train today in Roseville, CA, so I threw these words together, but don't necessarily know what they mean. Written 7/12/2024

Other Comments
@andygetch - 2024-07-13 I really like the line asking the train 'Would you be my guide?'. Reminds me of Amtrak train trips I have taken.
