The Train Conductor (Dedicated To Magnus)
By: Noah Eaton
9/7/01

Laying tracks to destinies he dreams of
With his dear wife by his side
This wonderful man creates fantasies of pure love
As his happiness sends him on fantasy's express ride

Reflecting on first dates to his life today
Speaking of his deep love of all his family
Writing ballads, sonnets, and serenades
All for those he loves and shares life's felicity

In a suit of shining armor, he writes Karbar the hero
Directing routes into adventure in struggles against dragons
His will and prize but all that made his heart go
To seek his fair princesses hand and escape into a fairy tale heaven

Two rails diverge his heart in poetic rhythm
Bringing smiles to all his heart invites
Boarding sweet memories into his train ride from reality's station
Soaring with joy into hopes and dreams confides

Now step aboard and bow before this special man
As he takes us to endless worlds of surreal wonder
Our Train Conductor Magnus, a man of words of liquid love and laughs
Taking us through the Milky Way and many worlds asunder...
