A Train Called Nostalgia

A Train Called Nostalgia
Copyright © George C. Clements. All rights reserved.

Just for Nostalgia,

I rode a railroad train.

Headed out of Boston

On a ride down memory lane.

The days of the old steam engine,

For the most part has past.

But memories of those days

Will continue to last.

I remember many years ago,

A two thousand mile ride,

When the train was king,

And it's crew cared for it with pride.

We traveled across our country,

This great land in view.

Everywhere we passed

There was something new.

Small towns and farm lands

Seemed to roll past our sight.

On occasion someone waving,

Much to our delight.

Bridges over rivers,

Prairie land runs for days.

Through valleys and over mountains,

We sped along our way,

Following the railroad track

Over our country, oh, so wide.

Seeing all of this

Has to bring out pride. ~ George C. Clements
