Question

The train is a metaphor for life.In what why does the poet compare train to life?

Answer 1

A life is similar to a train in the sense that like a train a life also keeps moving at a very high speed. Also none knows the exact time when it might halt. While boarding a train one has a glimpse of pleasant and unpleasant scenes which one also has in life. I used glimpse because life is long and all the memories are so like glimpses only.
