Best Diggers Poems

Sookie said (as she stood at the tee),

"Though this golfing is boring to me,

Its odds can't be beat.

Of golfers I meet,

for each woman, the males number three!!"

*Note: Female golfers number fewer than 23% in this sport.
With the many doctors...

Beneath the full moon's illumination, two darkly dressed
Figures are quietly digging, gentlemen collectors, of the
Cadavers of the undead, desecration's henchmen of
Greed’s loosened purse strings, murders of the dead flesh
Trade.
Grave diggers for hire, the fresher the body, the more
Coin is made, Burke, and Hare always say,...

LETS NOT CRY FOR THOSE WHO ARE DEAD

AS EMOTIONS ARE BURIED IN THE GRAVEYARD

LONGING FOR LOVE IS FUTILE

PALE AND FRAGILE

I WISH THOSE BLUE EYES

TO BE MINE FOREVER

ALAS ! DREAMS ARE THE ENEMIES OF DAYLIGHT

MOONLIGHT IS CONCEALING MY THOUGHTS

INSOMNIA IS GRIPPING MY VISION

WAYWARD THOUGHTS CULMINATES AS

MY...

There was a young man who Size 
Caused dames to tremble their Thighs
Swoon-- their names when he called It
and syncopate at the sight of his.... Wallet!...

I saw two gold diggers chasing  by dangerous dogs. 
Hidden behind the hindu golden statues of gods.
Screaming for help, some people came to help them, 
One dog caught one gold digger and bitten her bottom 
Dogs' owner blamed by one driver who carried goods.

no mercy
nary mercy
a mercenary
no loyalty but gold
hidden soldier of fortune
different kind of payment recieved........

Should I see whats in his pants or check out his size.
Does he appeal to my eyes.
Can i tell how much money he
makes from the kind of car that he drives.
If I give him the puss and leave would he 
break down and cry. I'm...

They gathered together thinking it’s not right
To charge for mining permits with gold in sight
So they gathered together at the Eureka Stockade
And armed themselves in their righteous crusade

Each digger stood by the Southern Cross flying true
And gave the oath vowing to defend each other too
“We...

Gold Diggers in Danger
When gold digging beware of those wild dogs
Who hide behind Hindu statues of Gods
If you look away, I’m sorry to say
You’ll be jumping around like leaping...

Grave Diggers


Bury me
bury me deep
deep in a hole
a hole with sides so steep
leave me there
there in the dank and dark
to ponder darkly on the sadness
besetting all those who’s home
and only window
is the light rimmed edge
of a hole

Leave me as you have left me
toss me your...

The warrior stands on one leg in the sun
And watches the British fleet drop anchor
These strange white men raise their flag
And the warrior’s land is stolen from him

Over the years they say the warrior is lost
But when Australia marched to war
The warrior stands tall again...

Death makes its appearance regularly. They lean upon their shovels
smoke a Marlborough, keep away from the mourners.
Always shovel ready. Even the utility hut is hidden yet ready,
it’s back where the graves peter out into headless mounds.

Theirs’s not the burden of loss, nor are they tasked...

They lean upon their shovels
smoke a Marlborough,
keep away from the mourners,
always shovel ready.
Even the utility hut is hidden yet ready,
it’s back where the graves peter out into headless mounds.

Theirs’s not the burden of loss, nor are they tasked by grief
as the undertaker crew are.
Swift, and...

The diggers looked around
As they  marched over the ground
Of the  Menin Gate at Ieper town
And their chiseled names shone brightly down
When they passed through the arch of glory
As the nightly bugle sung their story

They were laying across the battlefields
Still holding ground they refused...

Outside my office window, is a field with a canal running through it,
Today people have turned up with diggers and dumper trucks and are digging the field up bit by little bit.

Oftern barges slowly and gently go with the flow and casually moor there,
But now...
