During The Morning

During the morning
The train travelled on
Already THE JOURNEY
Seemed rather long…

She looked at her Journal
But had nothing to say
What was the lesson
For that day?

Beautiful music
Then filled the air
It seemed like Heavens choirs
Were all around, EVERYWHERE

Oh dear!, she thought
This is ‘over the top’
All this time alone
Will need to stop

'To be too Heavenly minded
Is of no earthly use
Without the right balance
One will blow a fuse'

She placed her feet
Firmly on the ground
Her practical skills
Were quickly found!

…The conductor entered
He knew her plea
'We will worship Our Creator
For all eternity
So at the next stop
We will serve the community
Climb a mountain
And enjoy a picnic tea

What you’ve learned
You will apply to those
Who travel on the ‘self’ train
And follow their instincts and nose'

…’Where have you been’?
Many expressed their concern
‘Set apart like that
What on earth can you learn’?

…She enjoyed their company
But was content
To be home in the Kings train
Going where ever she's sent
