African Train Trip.... Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan
African Train Trip....
African Train Trip
Title of a poem by Laurie van der Hart,
this poem has won the Member Poem Of The Day today
so strange, the poem is deactivated, i cannot find this part
and all her other poems have gone that way....
Waiting for the train to come
from morn to noon till night
at first it seems so clear and bright
but this train won't come ever, right?
sad to say goodbye this way, Laurie
you have been in love with Bear, but not with Poetry
your magical African train has faded in the air
since no tracks of train to find, nowhere
Member Poem Of The Day:
LAURIE van der Hart with "AFrican Train Trip"

I have written this same response THREE times, but each time it disappeared, because I cannot type fast. In this column, it will stay after it " has been away" , (2)
