 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

LIKE THE VERY FIRST TIME

Like the time my born in outback
I'd been told of the sea the ocean
Said it was the earths biggest dam
I sat on a hill gazing with divotion

Like the first time I ever saw rain
It had not rained since I was born
I woke up to the strangest sound
My father cheering just after dawn

The first ever time I ever saw snow
That I will never ever in life forget
On a holiday the night it went silent
Out there playing in it never got wet

I remember seeing my first falling star
It shot right across nights darkest sky
I even remember seeing Hallie's Comet
Comes every twenty five years to fly

There's firsts in life one never forgets
Some way more than the others true
A lot are just a part of life and living
Others remembered lifetime through

The very first time you ever won a race
Passed an exam at school back when
The first good friend that you made and
Today you still remember them from then

There's always a first time for everything
I could name way more than just a few
You too were a very first in many ways
And forever like all I will remember you
