I am sitting in the dining car of a train…or am I floating on the lake?
Either way it was magical.

Blue eyed boy boards a train
For northern lakes
And goodness sakes
For it trickles through his veins
Bending west along prairies
Crystal clear tributaries
Open mind steady
As the rails that carry him
And these winds beckon gently
As his gaze takes him further
Than his blue eyes can see
Past the pine and tamarack
More than transcontinental
This journey, monumental
A junction met
Between roots and risk

Written for dVerse – Open Link Night using Bill’s poetic prompt “All Aboard” where we were asked to write about trains.
Some of the best things in life happen accidentally. That was the case when my husband and I took a scenic train trip in a more northerly area of Ontario.
Take the beautiful beaming sun, the large window of a train and the constant movement as we roll down the tracks. Mix it with a somewhat limited knowledge of photography and voila…..some strange but interesting shots.
Coupled clouds
From the dining car….
…or a floating restaurant.
Reflecting on a remote little cottage.
Would I like to live here? Uh…yes!
Blurring colors of trees
Eerie silhouettes as the sun rises
He’s looking forward…..I’m looking back…….reflecting.
Relax as we race
Pondering the landscape
Beauty repeated
Lakes can be mirrors
Rays of replication
Mirrors in the mist
Or from the inside looking out?
Or maybe there is no division….maybe we are just part of it all
The journey by train is over as the sun offers us one last moment of introspection.
