Driving down Hwy 50—
Big cumulous clouds
Drifting by overhead

West of Emporia KS—
Then at milepost 119.3 
Turn into County Road B5
___________

Taking a left—
Down a dead-end
Muddy country road 

Stopping at some
Train-watching spot
Enjoying the action
_____________

A long row of tall—
Cottonwood trees
As a nice backdrop

Leafy in the spring—
Moody, spindly fingery
Branches in the winter
