Hello

Wide awake in the early hours thinking ahead to my Consultants appointment on Friday.  Serves already kicking in. I wrote this poem, so thought i would post it, hope you like it.

The ghost train glides to a stop on silent wheels.

The doors open but no one gets out.

Faces unknown stare at me.

A hand beckons me forward

But I step back. It waits.

I am not ready to leave this day.

The doors close, shut by unseen hands.

It moves away but it will be back

To carry me away when my day is done.
