Read in Randi Whitney's voice.

A bends, a turns, A watches, listens, learns. A , story, song, or seed Can travel far to meet a need.

Along the rivers, glide, With and tucked inside. meet and goods are shared, And friendships grow because they cared.

Across the , go, Beneath the sun's bright golden glow. They carry and precious , And news of places yet untold.

Across the water, ships may sail, Through morning sun or stormy gale. They carry people, goods, and views, And sometimes change the lives they choose.

A road is more than dirt or stone; It reaches farther than we've known. For when two different pathways meet, New thoughts can travel with our feet.
