Roger at the GO station

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
hoping to GO again tomorrow
