very good Dennis the same theme as Noel Stallards book the Animal Bush Band

Bill the old Battler

Thanks Bill. Yeah, after I wrote it I did some Google-ing to see
if anything similar had been done and came across that title but
couldn't actually find the poem.
To be honest I don't read a lot of poetry (although I'm starting to)
and haven't read any of Noel Stallard's
although I did find one on YouTube.

THE Bush Animals’ Band was a children’s Poem written by Noel Stallard and was made into a Book and Illustrated by Dave Emo the Book won the Australian Bush Laureates Award in 2009 an other children’s book by the same writer and artist was SEE What I See in the Sea.
I was fortunate to have both books signed and presented to me by both writer and artist. By the way Noel Stallard was our previous President and was a very likeable fellow who now performs as father Patrick Hardigan or correct name John Obrian

love it Dennis it is a ripper and I reckon the little kids would thoroughly enjoy it as well. Very clever

Cheers

Maureen

This 'little kid' sure enjoyed it.

"Ta" Much.
Jim.

I've read both Dennis and saw Noel perform his at beef week, yours is more a poem where Noels is more towards a song.

A good one for the kids


Cheers Bob.

Good one Dennis, Puts me in mind of “The Drovers Dream” which was a poem before it was a song. I like them both.

TTFN

Glad you liked it Maureen and Jim and thanks to Bill
and to Bob for the info.
Dave, thanks for the pointer to "The Drover's Dream" which
I found on the internet and yes it has a similar theme.

Of course I can only record what I saw.

Good on You. Dennis.

A poetic song of the bush.

A late night extravaganza.


I enjoyed this.


John
