#sol23 March 12 On the Same Train

Three backpacks, a huge rolling suitcase,
Tears welling in her eyes,
As she board the train, alone, 
I wondered where she was heading.
Why did she look so sad?

Two backpacks, two parents, 
Kids, snacks, water bottles,
Laughing, smiling, singing,
They boarded the train, together,
I wondered where they were heading?

One duffle bag, a coffee, 
He boarded the train quickly,
He stared out the window,
His uniform suggested
Where he was heading.

Our lives so different
Yet, on the same track,
For a moment.

Three different stories yet so similar. I love how you captured these three lives.
