Expressions

 

So very glad you stopped by!

This is the place where my four walls become alive with expression and voice. Make yourself at home and click on the links below for my past entries. This page will be updated monthly, so do check back for a stimulating read. Scribble your comments on my walls – I'd love to hear from you!

 

Michelle

Youngster on the Train
 
 
Stand clear of the closing doors
find something to read
don’t let others realize
you’re there.
Strangle yourself
so that time passes
quickly.
The train will start moving any second.

Sit tight
Try hard
Stare out the window.
Invisible.

Flapping in the wind
Nodding in the rain
Breathing again
Outside the
train.

Homeward.
