Whistle

A train whistle in the night
Nothing is so romantic
Or uncomfortable as
That siren sound of
Travelers on an
Adventure in
The night
Headed
For
Somewhere
Far away from here
And I feel a bit jealous
Sitting at home or tucked
Into bed under covers listening
To the train sounds move away.
However, I also remember how
Cramped the train was how
Eclectic dining guests
How loud neighbors
How hot or cold
The train cars
How politely
Helpful the
Staff to a
Stranger
On their
Train.
Yet,
There
Is romance
In the train whistle
So I suppose it all depends
On your travel companion
On your adventure on
The train since the
Journey is half
The fun of
Travel so
Perhaps
I am
Only whistling
In the dark.
