The Railroad Poem
The sound of a train
Coming through the town
You can hear the horn of the train
You can hear the engineers talking on the radio
You can see the light of the train
See the Light on the Tracks
The Crossing Lights start flashing
You can see the Colorful engines
You can touch the tracks
The Crossing with the Big Lights
The Depot in the Town
But don’t touch the train when it’s moving
The smell of diesel fuel
The smoke coming out of the engine
The Wood that the Train is taking
Sometimes, the Dangerous Chemicals
You can’t eat a locomotive
You can’t eat a train car
You can’t eat the tracks
But You can lick the tracks
