Railroad Poems
The Rail Road Track
by Clover Clever
He walked along the railroad track
A skip in his step and the sun to his back
As he walked, he whistled a merry tune
One that speaks of sun and moon
He has no fear of passing trains

The Railroad
by A. Jayne Kalty
Down the driveway and along the sidewalk
Fallen leaves whisper underfoot of a teetering post-toddler
Through the front yard and over the fence
Laughter of the leaves grows louder under velcroed shoes
Up a tree and over the great stone wall
Crunches and snaps and crackles in twigs under bunny eared sneakers
A long trail long silent
A railway lingering in disuse
The new conductor’s symphony of nature has covered over the tracks of the predecessor
The Railroad never known in its operation to a child who has only lived so long
