I watched the blooming countryside flit by
rolling down the road
Rhythmic pounding of the wheels on the tracks
as the train raced through the night
The hours went by
and the night seemed endless
Snow was falling heavily
under cover of darkness
under a silent sky
I prayed for the night to pass quickly
But it snowed on and on
My fate was unknown
My gaze remained fixed
on the landscape beside me
and I was all alone in the world
Great work Isabel! I like your choice of words. It is very refined.
