A life pulls out of the station.
On its maiden voyage, its respiration
starts at last,
the furnace blasts,
and motion starts,
this beating heart
heads for light.
And it's a fight.
The engineer gives it all he's got,
the train it hurdles, red and hot.
It's almost through, near the end,
its destination, around the bend.
It bursts through suddenly, whistle blowing,
suspended in air, wheels still going,
the conductor exclaims with unbridled joy,
Congratulations, it's a boy!

This is really cute. It's a clever perspective. I like this kind of thing and you've done it quite well. ~*Pat on the back*~
Lots of love and peace be with you,

Nice metaphor.
Interesting take on childbirth, and well rhymed.
Keep writing. |
