From Sydney Town,
In uni. break,
I drove out west
To earnings make
Onion picking,
On the fields
Of Echuca,
That year’s yields.
After day’s work,
From Y.H.A.,
A group of us
Would not delay
To walk on down
To the dirt rim
Of the Murray,
For a cool swim.
On one such day,
I do declare,
Some three of us
Had a big dare
To swim across,
From state to state,
The wide Murray -
I took the bait.
Yes, foolishly,
I took the bait -
A choice that I
Would come to hate,
For I almost
Did drown that date,
Making the swim
From state to state.

My Grandmother loved poetry, and she gave me a small book of poems by
Joan Walsh Anglund when I was 15 which I love - the book was called
'A Cup of Sun' ........... what I found amazing is how great her very short
simple poems were ............. if you get a chance look her up and tell me
what you think.
One example:
One seed
can start a garden
One drop
can start a sea
One doubt
can start a hating
One dream
can set us free
Thanks for the add
Best Wishes
Carol
