George Savige Poems

You cannot buy your happiness,
'Cause happiness is free.
Don't you know, or can't you guess,
It's there for you and me.
...

We went out fishing in a boat,
Charlie, Wal and me.
As it was cold, we wore a coat,
Fishing on the sea.
...

They told me with each Rainbow
I'd find a pot of gold,
And I had never proved it,
But that's what I was told.
...

We used to sit besides the track,
Watching trains go clickety clack.
We'd count each carriage passing by,
And smell the smoke that filled the sky.
...

Only believe
That Jesus can save.
Only believe
The Promise he gave.
...

I once owned a Bantam
It wasn’t a chook.
Now you cannot see one,
Except in a book.
...

Be careful of the words you say
cause death is just the blink away,

and be a friend to one and all
...

In the bush where trees are high,
Reaching up into the sky.
This is where we made our cash,
Cutting down the Mountain Ash.
...

It's time that marches,
So they say.
Where is it going?
Tell me pray.
...

Sometimes I’m very wide
Sometimes I’m very small,
Other times I’ve faded
And can’t be seen at all.
...
