Pascoe Poems | Examples


Bernard's Birthday

You were a talented British actor but sadly, not anymore.
If you hadn't died, today you would've turned ninety-four.
You starred in an episode of "Fawlty Towers" and "Dalziel and Pascoe".
Forty-four years ago, you starred in "The Adventures Of Picasso".
You starred in an episode of "Last Of The Summer Wine".
You starred in an episode of "Mogul" and "Space: 1999".
You starred in a short lived British sitcom titled "Cuffy".
After living a long life, you died at the age of ninety-three.
When you starred in Fawlty Towers, you beat up John Cleese.
Today would have been your birthday, may you Rest In Peace.  

[Dedicated to Bernard Cribbins (1928-2022) who died on July 27, 2022]

Rod Marsh

Cricket in the 70s was great
When the future was up to a World Series fate
And Rod Marsh was one of Kerry Packer’s men
To get better paid was their demand

When the Chappells, Doug Walters, Lenny Pascoe and friends
Returned to cricket properly with fulfilled demands
We saw Thommo and Lillee bowling down
With Rod Marsh crouching where the cherry was bound

In the record books there are 343 dismissals
Athletic catches to the bowlers missiles
The greatest number were catches made
With the crowd roaring and farewells to batsmen were bade

The record books show bowled Lillee caught Marsh
As the usual dismissal in an attack quite harsh 
But now he is one for the ages in our memories grand
Forever in his baggy green with a beer in hand.

I Am Waiting - - - Acknowledging Bruce Pascoe and His Book Dark Emu

I am waiting
For the colonists’ offspring
To see.

See what’s already there.
Been there decades,
hundreds and thousands of years.

Brewarrina.  Birrngi-Bream.
Condah.  Tuupuurn-Galaxis.
Bolac.  Smoked eels.

Curly Mitchell Grass.
Nodding Greenhoods.
Yam Daisy-Murnong.

Budj Bim.
World Heritage.
Right here!

Dark Emu.
Read it.
Grasp the future.

Don’t wait.
Act.
Thrive.

My Dear Lord

You are my everything, I love you 
more than anything. You give me 
strength, you give me love. You 
always have open arms. You never 
let me fall, you hear my call.

You are always there, you always 
care. You are the only one that I 
could turn to. I pray to you 
everyday, listening to what you have 
to say

Halloween Night

Witches, Monsters and Goblins come out on Halloween night. 
Don't be afraid because they feed on your fears,
Don't shed a tear.
If you aren't afraid, you will be alright.
They only come out on Halloween night.
