Man’s Best Friends As Crossing Guards Poem by Hebert Logerie
Man’s Best Friends As Crossing Guards
The ashy dust settled gracefully
On the blue flame
While the supersonic train walked slowly
As if a glamorous fashion show was taken place
At the behest of the anorexic supermodel
Who got tripped on the narrow one way.
Like a thin thread, the man-made centipede
Waned effortlessly
Before acquainting
The passengers who stood perplexed
Despite the ken of the speed
Of this incredible flying machine.
Not too far from the kiosk of the train station
Two dogs came running like crossing guards
To stop two shy lads playing hooky
From crossing the dangerous tracks.

Dear Mr Hebert, 'Man's best friend as crossing guard' is a unique poem with beautiful imagery, nice flow of words, which forces one to read it loud and let them sink in the heart.. 'like a thin thread the man-made centepede waned effortlessly' or 'supersonic train walked slowly as if a glamorous fashion show was taken place' and it reaches it's crescendo when you say'two dogs came running like crossing guards' we know the poetry has reached its ultimate. Thanks for sharing A10 from me Incidentally, other two I have commented upon on 21/03& 22/03me.-Rajkumar
These lines struck me like a roaring waves strike Water all over treasure beneath At the end, a meditating saint moving with wave Chanted a word of truth. Nice expressions and flow of words. The theme 'guards' lovely. Enjoyed the read. Thank you.
