Just one step at a Time.
When you commit yourself to verse but with only limited resources,
You’ll need commitment and tenacity to become your chief enforcers,
And as well a wide range of subjects to enable you to amass a fair quantity,
And lots of perseverance to avoid a trend that’ll drift towards inequality,
You try to incorporate humour while keeping it all authentic and sublime,
And you endeavour to tell a story but maintaining your statute is in rhyme,
Because your aim is to have it written in a language easily understood,
And if easily read and comprehended, then you’ve done all you should.
As a first time author I present for your approval a humble book of verses,
Written in a simple form of language and not interspersed with foul curses.
And if you can enjoy it only half as much as I, while composing and compiling,
Then we can sit comfy on our lounges, relaxed, contented, and all smiling.
Phil Sheather hopes you enjoy reading Just Battlin’ On Regardless as much as he enjoyed creating the uniquely Australian Poetry contained within.
