this boy likes buses and trains 
that GO 
and he knows this place 
of grown up commuters
diagonal lanes for buses to 
Toronto 
and sliding doors to enter station 
where our adult voices of caution shutter back 
in frag   ments 
this boy likes to go see trains 
bolt through the doors 
curly blondness determined to 
stand the platform to watch the 
railed reality 
then mighty little legs climb 
balcony to look 
down on people buying tickets 
to far far away 
and run so so fast to the other stairway 
and then down and up again until we go home 
walking the top of every large garden rock he sees
