The Midnight Express

The Midnight Express

A Poem by Lewis Findley
"

An Epic Odyssey.....

"

Yes, I started Shoveling Coal in the Caboose....

I nearly got thorwn off the train a few times...

Yet I resolved... that I would... in time...

Be the engineer and make the train mine....

At last it happened...the opportunity seen

and grabbed.... WWWWWWWAAAAARRRRRRRPPPPPPPP ONE!

Its A Space Train.. Past The Moon Venus mercury and The Sun....

To the Universe outer expanse we are going....

And we are not going to slow down....

We will see it all by the time we are through....

Every Cosmic  Metropolis and little cosmic town....

12 1/2  long and gloriious years...

Conducting the Midnight Express....

Cosmic Poetic Train....

Where will it stop next... Well.. just take a guess...
