Blending in
Direction West
birds back to the nest
I need a rest so I'm
tagging along.
A V formation at every
station
but
some still jump the queue
I don't
they do.
a hum of quiet conversation,
the rationing of words on
this journey of birds
while
others squawk
loudly.
I wonder if
' Lonsdale'
is near
' Emmerdale '
Farmers travel too.
Bearded man with
a Vespa shirt on,
no sign of a scooter
or come to think of it
a razor either.
There appears to be more
earrings than
wedding rings
perhaps this is the
singles carriage.
And now a seat is available
so
I make myself comfortable
and try to close my eyes.
