woe betide them that try
to se in stone what needs more time…
My turn table lost?*
without further cost?
Then I looked near bed time!
–
I thought I’d lost my lead
To that tyrn table, but indeed…
A curve could be made
With large enough radius laid,
To satisfy the using of steam.
–
A switch I’d previously cut in,
To one engine stall could run…
The other could Branch
From the turn table switch–
My space problem was overcome!
–
Envisioning a massive water wheel,
Fed by a sluice pipe has appeal…
This motorized–
Already planned (what a surprise?),
For which the tourists would positively SQUEAL!
–
And then, the bridge over a mill dam flood—
If I wanted, a covered bridge wouldn’t take TOO MUCH blood…!
Just for light tourist trains–
Steel reinforced all the same–
An occasional short freight could be good!

I wish I could draw all this now,
All it took was time to see how…
Possibilities arise
by opening one’s eyes,Imagination plus a day’s-worth of wrinkled brow!
