I Am Getting On In Years Poem by Francis Duggan

I am getting on in years into my life's Fall
And little about life i do know at all
A bit of the big World out there i did see
But many have seen far more of it than me
I was born and bred and raised as an Irishman
And i have been to Britain the U S and Japan
And for a few weeks i have traveled about
In green New Zealand the Pacific Land of the south
I live in Koroit in Victoria Australia today
But i often do daydream of Lands far away
And big towns and cities in the Big World out there
The wander bug in me for places elsewhere.
