Poetry Thursday

 

This is the photo that Angel Sammy and Teddy gave us for inspiration

 

 

John’s friend the photographer asked him to strike a pose

John decided to try it and see how it goes

When they arrived at the spot John’s friend said to stand in the tunnel

But John refused and said  it could be trouble

The photographer insisted the photo would be meaningful

A man finding light at the end of the tunnel is cheerful

The photographer said no train would come for hours

And there was no reason for John to cower

So against his better judgment, he entered the tunnel and walked into the sun

And the photographer was right there was no reason to run

John heard the click of the camera as he walked into the light

Then saw a train hit the photographer, who wasn’t too bright
