In reply to your prompt to far away
there were a number of Kooris from the war never returned
A KOORI SPIRIT calling to come home ©
Brother! can you hear me, from a land I not belong.
Brother! will you sing me, a coming home song.
Brother! I have been here, many years to long.
Brother! I am waiting, I’m waiting oh so long.
Brother! will you sing me, a coming home song.

Re: to far away
Sorry Bill
- I see it now I wasn't at all on the same playing field. There are many coloured servicemen and their families who would relate to this and it's grand to see you participating in homework - I enjoyed your poem
