Seas

A Poem by imagesinwords

Sailing in fathomless seas
Drifting alongside ocean currents
The tide is high I am holding on
This way or that life’s a tough uphill climb

I seek the simplicity in array fields
Of a complicated nature this jargon of life
So my areas of joy I find
Even in the simple truths of a stunning rail journey

Boarding the train from the nearest station
In the country lands I live
Then whizzing past picturesque lands
Meadows and flower fields hills and lakes

Faster than witches faster than the spur of a thought
That the scenes shift or traverse backwards as train moves on
Ecstatic a moment to gaze at this beatitude
Wishing that the impression gets immortal or
Imprinted in mind’s recess

Traveling by train and perhaps traveling alone
A moment in self exploration touching base
With my inner self.reclining in the couch
In the trains compartment sipping on lemon drinks
Occasionally reading fiction and books
Rest of the while just gazing outside the large window
Watching the sunset before the dark befall
And I would not be able to see anything in the darkness

What brings me a sense of unbound pleasure and joy
Is like this the simplicity as in the train journey
Across bucolic lands unknown frontiers
Unfamiliar and yet very nice
