jerky and pop in my bag-
I follow the tracks

The reason this is great is that for some reason, I was expecting more, yet none is really needed, is it?

It's amazing how something so small can be complete in itself. I can almost feel the brash optimism of the kid.

the train tracks go past the horizon taking perspective with them...reminded me of that movie " stand by me " - nicely done hugh - paul and the training hound.

    Paul..I remember that movie, and I'm glad you brought it up. This poem was written from the perspective of a kid. Thanks for your comment. Best to you and the hound..-H
