Ferns and moss
Fallen down trees
Footprints in the bogs
Sands and salt marshes
Bushes by the doyen’s dozen
An artisan baker’s shop and café
A quiet place
A busy place
A place once so full of tourists
On platform one
Waiting for the train
To Silverdale
Two stops down the line
Alongside the estuary
From Grange-over-sands
To the RSPB’s sanctuary
At Leighton Moss, with the ducks
And a coronation chicken sandwich
Paint is peeling
From the glass window
Staring out into the station’s waiting area
