The Moose and The Train

By kingfish

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

THE MOOSE and THE TRAINI grew up in a small little north west town,A place in the country with animals all around!I watched them grow from babies to adults my dear,Watch them grow antlers and have no fear!A moose family lived down by the tracks,The only way into this town and back.The train then a steam engine I am toldBought food and mail and hunters so bold.The train had a special place to stop,A moosing crossing sign was placed on a building top!The train would quietly wait there to see,The moose cross there that was pleasing for me!The steam engine is gone, a diesel now comes through,The sign on top of the building is too!A moose tries to cross but his life is cut short,The horn on the engine sounds like another mooses snort.Like us with brain injuries now and thenWe forget our problems and try now and again,To cross the tracks and forget the sign,Remember your the way till the end of time. by Keith SherrardJust read enjoy then give it to me, Thanks Written January 1st, 2001 © on Oct 29 2001 09:42 AM PST   0 • 1
