As
the train rattled along
the tracks, Mary stared out
the window, watching
the world blur by in a mesmerizing dance of motion
and color. Fields of green stretched
out to the horizon, interrupted
only by occasional clusters of trees or quaint farmhouses.
The rhythmic clacking of
the wheels against
the rails provided a soothing backdrop to
her thoughts, allowing her
mind to wander freely.
Lost in contemplation, she
found herself pondering
the twists and turns of her own life's journey, wondering where the tracks would lead her next.
