Walking Along the Railroad Tracks
A Poem

As I walked along the railroad tracks
That could have been the death of me
Instead of depression
I felt peace
Each step turned into inner power
Energy welled up as I journeyed faster
Brisk air filled up my lungs
Birds sang beautifully overhead
Sunlight intertwined with clouds
Sending a kiss to my entire being
I thanked God for another day
And kept on wandering
Imagining the future of Heaven
Knowing my eternal home
Would be more amazing than
This euphoric feeling
Yet breathed in the enormity
Of God’s amazing wonders
I whispered a prayer of gratitude
To the Creator
And smiled
