Hop on a train with me

Daily writing prompt
You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike?

My poetic response:

I hopped on a train with a clickety-clack,
With a rumble beneath and a snack in my pack!

It whooshed past the trees and it zoomed past the sky,
With a toot from the horn going toodle-oo-hi!

The seats gave a jiggle, the windows went whoosh,
As tunnels went whoomp! and the rails went swoosh!

“Oh where will we go?” I said with a grin,
“To places unseen—or places we’ve been!”

So ride, ride, ride on the rattly track,
With a tickety-tock and a snackity-snack—
For trains are the best (and that, dear friend, is that!)
