The thing
my older sister Elizabeth
shared with me
Was the art of
listening to Peter Gzowski
The loosest of ends
he tied up you see
From behind his mike
at the CBC
Canadian history was taught
and made there
From his beloved Toffino
we'd hear him out there
With Coffee and cigarets a comfortable chair
Leaning into his mike over the air
True Canadiana was Peters fair
Just close your eyes he'd take you there
Alone sits the senior
a horse sense i feel
From this man on the radio
The only good company to reel
I dont know if there will ever be
Another like minded Peter Gzowski
Natural like a honey bee
From coast to coast
He enriched this country
From behind the mike at the CBC
