I know a precious little girl
From McKenzie, Tennessee
Who came to town one day
To her loving Gram to see.
This little girl is known as Emma
Who captures everyone's heart
While visiting with her Gram
The two won't be apart.
What shall they do for fun this day?
It's June with air so hot and dry
Gram decided on the Dallas Zoo
Trinity Railway Express: Grams decided to try.
So riding the train to the Dallas Zoo
But caps they'll wear to shade the eyes
Lots of animals they saw that day
Even went wading, Emma wasn't shy.
Many activities for the children to do
Seeing things work and working the puzzle
It is a challenge for their minds
When Emma finished, she gave Gram a nuzzle.

Even a horse, Miss Emma rode,
Altho' the horse won no race
Miss Emma sure had lots oof fun
The wooden horse stayed in the slow pace.
"Come on Gram, lets go,
There's more animals I want to see
Gram, no fishes have I seen today
Don't they have some from the sea?"
Miss Emma looks so sleepy~tired
It's getting late and we must go
Gram and Emma all tired out
As they headed for the Dart depot.
We made it back to the Trinity Express
Found some seats and we stretched out
Ready to head out to Big Cowtown
A nap for two, there'll be no doubt.
One last photo for the day
As they departed from the train
Tomorrow they'll plan something to do
Love for each other will always remain.
