The Station Mailbox

 

Alone it stands beside the track

to guide you home when coming back

 

The only sight for miles around

our station mailbox in the ground

 

Built with care from an old drum

so mail and papers can still come

 

A number plate from our old car

our name to say just who we are

 

Phones don’t work - don’t even try

 

Just dip your hat

as you pass by..
