Crimson’s Creative Challenge #243 #Of such things are dreams composed

In my day every young boy’s dream

was to ride on a train that was powered by steam

imagining how the driver must feel

as he stood in control of that monster of steel

but now I’m content to just stand and admire

these giant engines through their smoke and fire

still cherished and polished by a faithful few

whose childhood dreams have all now come true

    Lovely poem! A child’s imagination will always be his greatest friend; together they will create the most fantastic hours of play.

    This is very good, Bobby. I can’t say I ever had that dream, but I do love to ride them 😎
