I found this daunting after a day spent reviewing.
Think shorter ..think breaking it up..
I like the language you use ..it is fresh
But I will be honest it was just like a train ride..
God bless

One hell of a joyride! Very impressive writing and swaying between realism and the fantastic. I think you could have broken this up into verses as it's a long poem, yet I read it to the end and think the imagery is superb and life's journey described very well. If it isn't life's journey I'm not sure I want to be on that train, lol! Best wishes, Hatter

    Bed time thought for children long to allow them pleasing thoughts before sleep. At least the aim. Thanking you for your patience and generous rate and kind statements

I want on that train. It has cherries and fudge. Sounds like Heaven to me. I wasn't hungry until I read your poem now I will have to eat an apple. Fabulous writing. I do have one question in your first sentence did you mean tired? Great job my friend.

It's hard to mess with the imaginings of a creative mind, and this poem did take me through some twists and turns of fantasy and perhaps wishful thinking. But both the title and the ending are very confusing.

Is BROAD--as in wide a typo? I believe it should be all a BOARD, as that is the common invitation for passengers to get on the train.

Good. I found this work extremely hard to follow and understand. Also, it is very long and I started losing interest about halfway through. You might do better if you shortened and condensed this poem. Best wishes in your writing.

As a child such train or car journeys can be such a delight. The whole world opens up before your eyes. Good descriptions and imagery. Just one thing, I think maybe this is a bit long. From my own experience the attention of the reviewer on fanstory is very short. Enjoyable read. faye

This is a great fantasy, a dreamland to behold. Yes, every child has a dreamland in which he/she lived in but the realities on ground does not allow that to happen as time progresses. A well penned poem, free verse.

This poem reminds me of I life I picture outside of the world we live in now. It was very open-minded and I could literally close my eyes and picture what your poem represented! Great poem. Look forward to more.
