My best years of penning stuff well may be gone
But i must be addictive as i keep penning on
Some friends even tell me you've said all you have to say
'Tis time you gave scribbling of doggerel away
But i am addictive their advice i ignore
And here i go once again penning some more
The grey shrike thrush is piping on the pittosporum tree
What is boring to some is inspiring to me
There is so much to write of in Nature alone
From the woodlouse who finds refuge under a stone
And the pink blossoms of Spring that bloom on the fruit bearing tree
And the elephants and the great whales of the sea,
Some tell me to quit scribbling but i ignore their advice
For every addiction to pay there's a price.
