Thoughts on a Train
Dedicated to my Grandson Freddie
(Picture taken on the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway Porthmadog June 2011)
Steam Train carrying me along its track
Where are we going and when will
We be back
See a curve coming soon
Tunnels too as we go
Thinking, just thinking
My Train passes a station
Steam comes back along
The track
Dreaming of ice cream
Soda and lollipops
My narrow gauge steam train
My dreams come true
I’ve been on it and what a thrill
Look back in the future
When I was nearly five
My Steam train on
Its track.
