The Canadian Pacific Holiday Train By JT Kirages
The Train is coming,
I can hear it.
The Season is coming,
I can feel it.
Bright lights.
Happy faces.
Joyous people
Everywhere.
But I can’t forget
Those who need.
Hoping for food and
Hoping for money.
They can’t be happy
Without their daily needs.
The Holiday Train.
The train brings hope down the tracks.
The train’s not just about
Pretty lights and Cheerful songs.
It was made to warm the hearts
Of the hungry.
The train travels far and wide,
To collect food and money for Those in need.
It brings a party in a package.
It brings people together.
It brings hope. It makes us care.
It makes us remember.
The Holiday Train is there to
“Lend a helping hand.”
Standing on the platform
I am waiting.
Clanging.
It is coming.
Like a beacon in the night
I can see it.
It warms my heart.
The lights are glowing
Like a second sun.
Lighting the darkness
And illuminating the cause.
The engine roars through the station.
It takes my breath away.
It inspires me to do more.
To be more.
To help more.
Such a powerful train,
with a powerful message.
A moment in the night
A change in me
Forever.
The Holiday Train and I are there to “Lend a helping hand.”
