Fellow Traveler (not a fellow)

my vagabond has broken
retreated into her vardo
and closed the door
i don't know the damage
nor have i a cure
i just stand and wait
helpless
in my field of blues
hoping my train song
and my umbrella
reaches her spirit
mends the splintered
hides the rain
and lights a candle
in her quiet

    so there.
