Train

North bound train Canadian land Byways and the valleys a time in quiet that may be found Treasures of the Forest Cars on a busy stretch,this afternoon Later in the evening I'll gaze upon the old man of the moon A tourist touring The splendor of Province country The conductor is pointing out scenic spots Still riding the rails in Summer's time of Thunderstorm hails Be as it may I'll return to Boston somehow some day The children will be grown nieces and nephew shake this hand Knowing forever, their favorite storyteller is now home
