It Was Cold On Eureka. Poem by Geoffrey Fafard

It Was Cold On Eureka.

Rating: 5.0


It was cold on Eureka Creek at six
When the dogs woke.. bloody cold
5 or 6 degrees is a bit nippy
For this tropically spoilt boy.
But it was beautiful, quiet, fragrant
Full of life. So with the fire stoked and
A coffee in hand, well it gets no better
Five days flew past like the
Grey Heron that came down to the
Creek to fish.I threw on a flanny and
Sat in the creek bed and I learnt lots.

It Was Cold On Eureka.
