puffing willie


the puffer train comes rolling through
with steamy clouds neath sky of blue
the hills above the purbecks downs
the fields of green laid out like sacred gowns

the puff and panting of its sacred theme
its rushing gist of joyful scene
its body rich in green and gold
its whistle blows and its story old

from swanage town to warehams lane
neath bridges in the Wessex terrain
the schoolkids flock to ride its flanks
their wave goodbyes and loud loud chants

onwards it goes through leafy glades
over the hills creator made
its call to fame its rolling blades
its call to freedom forever saved
