George Savige Poems

I sometimes think back
Through the years,
Of crystal sets
And burning ears.
...

To hospital they sent you,
Feeling pretty bad.
And on the day you went you
Wondered what you had.
...

A rooster stands upon his toe,
And bellows forth a mighty crow,
Telling all those soundly sleeping,
Light of day is slowly creeping.
...

I HEARD THE THUNDER RATTLE
AND SAW THE SKY EXPLODE,
THE HEAVENS IN THEIR FURY
WERE SENDING DOWN THEIR LOAD.
...

When God made man, He said to him,
You ought not be alone.
And so then God created Eve
For Adams very own.
...

Hop in the truck,
We're off on a run,
Driving all night,
'Till we see the sun.
...

I am a toy soldier
Standing on some grass,
Made of painted hessian,
By a sea of glass.
...

His pockets full
Of strangest things,
There's nuts and bolts
And bits of string.
...

Now Christmas is approaching,
And this time every year.
I think back on my childhood
And days of yesteryear.
...

A little fly
Upon a wall
Though not too big
And not too small
...
