Moonie Poems


Short-Lived Joy

...She pumped the air and whooped,
'The holidays are through!'
She danced a jig, she spun,

'They're back to school again!'
But then her laughter d...

A life of this existence.

Also ,a victim of bullying;
Nights and days of utter doom,
They even made a stage play-

Seemed like an awful long time;
To get the monies together,

Taken

...Taken 
Taken by the Aliens in 1974,
White light in the trees,
for 50 miles or more,
Saucer crossed the road,

Spotlighted like the Kangaroo’s
And the bloody Dingoes too,
White light spotlights overhead,
Reaching down for me I dread,

Moon

...the moon can be a bit of a fright,

The Moonie

... Moonie 

It was in the seventies I was out at St George,
Playing pool with the locals,
and the blacksmith from his forge,
I was winning, had a winning streak,
But I was getting a bit drunker...

We got a place to shoot that had the wild pigs
So we are walking through a crop of something green and blooming
When a porker Boa...
