Poems

Who wins the September the seventh 2013 Australian Federal Election Labor or the Coalition Parties why should i even care
Since anything in common with any of them i do not have to share
Both of their policies are anti natural environment and anti refugee
So who wins or who loses will not matter to me
...

Of your inhibitions you may never be free
But you only can be the best you can be
To live as a good person and never harm anyone
Is the best form of success when all is said and done
...

He is one you dislike greatly by your words on him one can tell
But why do you revel on his Earthly Hell
You seem happy that financially he is doing anything but well
As on the subject of his financial misfortune you do like to dwell
...

For early September in early Spring such a very warm day
And by the weather forecast for the rest of the week it will remain this way
A forecast high for the day of 25 degrees
And warmth in the sunshine and hardly any breeze
...

Though the clock on their lives does keep ticking fast
Most migrants even in old age do retain memories of the past
Of the Homeland and the memories of there good and bad
Sometimes in nostalgic moments people do feel sad
...

So little of Nature's ways i can claim to know
Yet my wonder of her only does seem to grow
And from her we do learn something new every day
We never stop learning as some like to say
...

How marvelous life is on a day like today
In the sunny blue sky just a few clouds of gray
The magpie lark sings his familiar pee wee
A bird familiar to many and familiar to me
...

On what is success ask one other than me
For on such you and i cannot agree
The wealthy and famous are those you admire
And of singing their praises you never do tire
...

So many sad to say too many do know of the struggles of life
Of poverty, homelessness and depression and worries born of inner strife
The victims of war, droughts and famines and the victims of bad circumstance
The people cruelly referred to by the judgmental as life's losers of a fair go deprived of the chance.

The countryside from Geelong to Warrnambool has never been looking so green
Miles and miles of fenced and big paddocks with few enough trees to be seen
It has been a mild and wet Winter and plenty of grass for hoofed mammals this Spring
Rain and sunshine are our gifts from Nature and Nature's workings is an amazing thing
