In Penshurst lives a poet
Francis Duggan is his name
he posts work on the internet
as well as earning local fame
.
his birth place was in Ireland
now he calls Australia home
every day writes rhyming verse
in lyrical traditional form
.
his themes range from bird and tree
through to complex human nature
soul sees both beauty and misery
sympathises with living creature
.
he wrote a wonderful anthology
called ‘Songs of Sherbrooke’
exploring many aspects of life
examines closely cranny and nook
.
if there’s something that you want
to know about life down-under
follow Frank’s heart, see through
poet’s eyes world full of wonder
