From a window on a train I look for sheep and cows
seeing only buildings, cars - as round-about I browse.
The gentle rocking of the train sends my thoughts away...
away from all the meetings that would take up all my day.
People feeding back to me; agendas still to write.
I know this long hard day will soon become a long hard night
No green; no sky; no pleasant breeze; just buildings, people, cars
hustle bustle, noise and smell, the shops, the factories and bars
Roll-on later - the end of the day, that is where my mind is now!
The journey home is always better - wake me when you see a cow!
