IN TRANSIT

Rahway, sun setting, past Metropark station
complacent in the fading suburban Sunday
moving away from my weekend love
red and orange autumn glow between houses
set in rows, smiles and friendly hello's
while in transit...

rails and ties

i search the happiness in her eyes,
her magic and smile cinematic
crossing bridges as water flows
in it's highways of highs and lows
tugboats in tow...

passed the meadowlands close to home
over the marshes and moss covered stones
a new week i start alone, but

in our hearts we are together.

Apart, but never apart. That's for sure.

You capture the grit of New York really well.

This left a smile within.

A lovely sentiment, captured well in your words.
