Sitting backwards on the train

 

The sweet song

calls back to me,

and my heart

feels the pull

of tranquillity.

For love flows

in those

green meadows.

The Yorkshire rose

sits upon the sea

of emerald,

and the sun

shines gold upon

every dew draped, pale petal.

 

I left a shadow

of my heart

buried in those

Yorkshire hills.

Where it can drink the sunlight

and glow from inside.

 

I’m drawn like

a bird flying north.

The tilt of the earth

always leads me here.

This air, so clean and crisp,

droplets of dawn's nectar upon my lips.

Where love sits

catching the breeze.

and I sip at the sweet

dreams it sets free,

like an herby tea

supped from a mug

emblazoned with destiny.

 

I left a footprint of my soul,

in a hole dug into the

Yorkshire dales. For there

it can grow from it’s stale pain,

to become a blooming flower of hope,

an anchor to the strength I hold deep within.

 

I stay in cotton bud fantasy

wrapped tightly around me,

but I know that I can’t stay,

for my heart belongs to

someone

where my hat lays,

and as I travel away,

I sit facing backwards

as I want to see

the beauty until it

fades into the grey.
