Numbers...Letters...Symbols

Chugging around my head

Stretching to infinity

With no caboose in sight


A conductor to navigate

And stewards giving assistance

Moving past the first class

Through crowded economy sections

Each compartment, new equations

Many ideas converging at once


All connected

And pulled by one engine

The whistle blows


Math Train!
