I'm Bored ~~ A ditty for "Play it Again" challenge
I'm Bored;
I want off this train
I'm bored, I want off this train
This train is going nowhere
Nowhere that I want to go
Please let me off, stop the train
(Refrain)
The seats are dirty and old
The carpets are soiled with milk
Milk train stops at every town
Stops where I don't want to go
(Refrain)
This train is slow, slowed with age
I'm no spring chicken, I'll go
You ride this train all you want
I'm getting off the next stop
(Refrain)
Refrain:
There's a new train in our town
It takes me where lights are bright
Where I've been wanting to go
I liked you once but no more

I'm linked today with Kerry O'Conner at the Imaginary Garden with Real Toads, Play It Again, Toads! ; http://withrealtoads.blogspot.com/2016/11/play-it-again-toads.html
And again on Tuesday, I linked with Kerry O'Conner at the Imaginary Garden with Real Toads. This time for the Tuesday Platform (link). My train riding can also apply to politics, stay with the system or ride with the supposedly to be new ride.
Notes:
(1) At "Play it Again" we are to go back to past Garden days and write for one of three suggested posts or another oldie. I chose to write my poem, "I'm Bored", based on Kenia's art at the first link above.
(2) Kenia Cris can be found in various social media places, use Google to find them. Her poetry currently is to be found here, http://anexerciseonexisting.blogspot.com/.
