Taking It Slow

If  you are always rushing to the next moment, what happens to the one you are in?
Nanette Matthews

Rushing through my life moments,

I arrived at the destination. 

Looking around I asked,

"Is this all there is to see and do?"

The Wise One sitting at the station replied,

"Oh no, there were many more things on your way here. Did you miss them?"

Humbled, I replied, "Yes."

"Too bad," said the WO.

"Maybe your next journey will give you more."

Taking my courage, I sat next to him to await the next life train's arrival and vowed

 to enjoy the ride

 no matter where it was going.

Perhaps when it arrived I would be the WO at the station.
