Train of Life

A poetic journey through life, seen as a train full of experiences and reflections.

Train of Life


Train of Life


Today a train of poets

arrived at the Railway Museum

with its carriages of verses

to make the soul travel

for a while.


The train is poetry,

poetry is a train

made up of verses

Each verse is a carriage...


They glide

from start to finish

They make you travel

to deep feelings


A thousand expressions about the train

fly in my head


"You look like a train"

as a compliment


"What a train of life"...


and that's how it is for me

Life is a train

the train is Life...


It glides on land and air

It passes through many stations

New people get on and off

our carriages


Don't miss the train of Life

Be attentive to the circumstances

in the carriage of the present!

to advance without stopping...


Making the future present

and leaving the past behind without stopping


In motion, Life is unstoppable

it goes as fast as a whirlwind


Just meditate and enjoy

calming that speed


And so I go traveling on the train

I don't need to do anything;

just enjoy living


I feel at peace

watching out the window

everything glides in my stillness,

things come and go


I close my eyes and rest

and feel the love...

I am the consciousness of myself

without haste in the hurry of the train


I'm here and now...

in silence...

I am peace


And I feel like a train

passing through vital experiences

with beginning and end

Everything will pass

Only consciousness,

the traveler,

will remain
