The train yet moves

And I sit there

Enjoying a drink

Taking in the views

Outside the window

"It's so beautiful out there," she says

A smile creased on her lips

She took me by the hand

"Can we go out there?

And play in the snow?

I've always wanted to"

I smiled widely

She was hard to resist

"Of course," I told her

And she giggled

The way she always does

Never did I expect

To find myself in the company

Of a new friend

The stranger had long gone

On his ride

I wonder how he is now

But Time has gone by

So quickly

I vaguely recall the day

I met him

But now she's here

She's here to keep me happy

And calm

And contented

And to me

That would suffice

Outside

Time almost seemed

Non-existent

As we built snowmen

Pelted each other with snowballs

Riding on a sled

Laughing all the way

The aurora came up at night

And we sat

Around the campfire

Birdsongs heard in the woods

We sat there

In silence

As nature unveiled her beauty

"I wish everyday was like this"

She whispered in my ear

As she drifted into sleep

"I wish for the same," I tell her

We sat there

As the day faded to a close

Morning light

As the train moves on

Alone I am now

As the view blurs past

She's gone

She's gone now

But Life has to go on

Always did she say

"Greener pastures are out there

And I hope to lay there

In the grass

As the breeze blows softly

From dawn to dusk"

I guess

She has gone to look

For those greener pastures

Would she be back?

I have my doubts

Life is all too short

To expect anything

The least I can do now

Is to keep going on

So I pen it all down

And I make sure

I cherish these memories

Cherish our memories

Cherish
