TRAIN WHISTLE IN THE NIGHT

My poem "Train Whistle In The Night" is about a night recently in the wee hours about a whistle of a train that kept blowing as the train made it's way through the county.

 TRAIN WHISTLE IN THE NIGHT

 

 

One night in the mid wee hours

You could hear off in the distance

The whistle blowing train roar

As it rolled on the rails advance

As the train rambled through the county

The whistle blowing continued

The engineer must have been happy

As the train rolled along and rumbled

As the rolling train moved away

And the train whistle continued blowing

The engineer apparently was carried away

As the train just kept rolling

Living close to train tracks and two crossings, I can relate. When we first moved here, those trains would wake me up. Now I barely acknowledge them.

Hearing a train whistle is a fond memory that is now confined to the few historic railroads that have operating steam engines. Today, all you are likely to hear is a raucous horn blaring as electric diesel engines roar through intersections in the night.
