For some reason on the ride home yesterday, our train came to a halt in between stops. I looked out the window to my left and realized that we were sitting at the end of my street. I took this picture. The quality isn't very good considering it was taken on my phone, but i liked the edgy-ness of this photo.

Looks like a place Tom Waits could write a song about.
Good Eye!

I decided to write a poem about your train stop. Here it is:
(the spacing got a little screwed up when I copies it).
Sherry Winters

Extraordinary stop -
Sudden serendipity walk.
Thanks dear troubled train…
For reflective mirrors in the rain.

My daily journey is hard, the journey is long.
But today’s heart now bursting with symphonic song.
Melodies shouting from each pensive pool-like puddle.
As through each one I cheerfully and contemplatively muddle.


Dull images now clear
Some old, some dear
Memories motionlessly mesmerized
Images once lost forever memorialized.

There are no coincidences you see
Only opportunities for me
To be
Free.

My Photo
Name:
Location: Atlanta, Georgia, United States

I am on a journey, searching for God and what that means in my daily life. It's not about constraints, it's not about limitations, but freedom. I know something exists beyond the visible. I live thinking about possibilities and what could be and the necessary steps to make things happen. I like long talks with a good friend, drinking tea, eating breakfast with my husband, going to a bookstore (they are the new libraries), cool mornings, windy days in the fall, learning about love and life from those who seem to have found their way, teenagers, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, long baths, and connecting with another heart. I am learning how to love, how to live, when to speak and when not to, when it's time to gather the stones, when it's time to let go, surrender, forgiveness, and discipline.
