A Ride On The Train

I made a trip to D.C.
to discuss my poetry.
Who would have thunk it?
I tried hard to debunk it.
They all said they'd heard of me!
-
Li'l ole me, from Wenatchee,
a place unknown in D.C.
Some of them had heard my name
spoken with minor acclaim.
This is my great fantasy!
-
I'm coming home in a dream.
This trip was creme DE la creme!
I had a chance to sell books,
I received admiring looks,
and became a part of the team.
-
I sold more books on the train
to friends I hope to retain.
May our lives once again pass,
in either coach or first class.
Friendship is our greatest gain.
