Train of Thought presents a collection of poetry that contains a unique and intriguing compilation of themes. As bold as it is vulnerable, it combines elements to create a vivid depiction of a broad spectrum of emotions. Through her graceful writing ability, Barbara C. Johnson fearlessly captures the basis of life's emotional essence. Interspersed with her poems are short prose passages exploring her thoughts further.

These verses seek to examine the positive and negative feelings that the experiences of life awakens. They trace a pathway of ideas and imagination, ultimately unveiling an effusive Train of Thought.

She gathers the thoughts of what she'd say
when the time came
Words ... Colliding
Stumbling away in her brain
And her mind ... attempting to release how she feels inside

Fantasizing the fantasies
Realizing the realities of a generalized speech
broken down piece, by piece, by ... peace

Yet there she stays speechless
Silent
Muted like Chaplin's exquisite expressions

She became a mime
The sole narrator of gestures
in her mind
