Mounting a tramcar one thought should be peaceful,

it was just that for a time just sounds of traffic was fine

usual passengers coming and going at each stop,

peering as they passed my part of tram.

The driver began to bark at cars in his way

he commented loudly to a passenger trying to

leave the tram of the festive season and it all starts well.

googly eyes and thick set he barked and rang his bell

not happy with the traffic in the way as we all had to listen

to his childish tan-trams, well he likes that bell as it went on,

ding dingevery thirty seconds or so as I read a book and a woman

opposite me tried also with my partner beside  me it was humorous.

Finally it reached where the tram stopped at the depot and changed drivers, Hooray!!

at last we might have some peace for the other half of the trip home.

Having drivers like this occur seldom for me once before a train driver,

he sounder the whistle every fifteen seconds and no traffic in sight,

believe he may had a lunch with amber liquid prior as I noticed upon boarding,

he stopped the train half way from where I stood and snickered as I ran to board.

As they say small things amuse small minds.
