Snowy scene
engine steams
blazing trail
road of rail.
Path is chosen
through valleys frozen
on mountains majestic
sunlight is reflected.
Sniffs of smoke
fires are stoked
gaining speed
for a steep grade.
Burning coal
fills its soul
belching fumes
in cotton plumes.
Passengers mingle
engineer signals
in winters throws
a whistle blows.
Wheels go round
on roads yet found
northbound train
winter you tame.
