Great to read about the walking path that the Queensland government and Logan City Council are going to build, on the old Waterford to Beaudesert line.
A fun way to get on ‘track’ to fitness!
I had a bit of fun writing a poem about the area, and I’d like to share it with your readers.
These ridges I would tramp, on a bivouac or camp, as a boy scout or army cadet.
Billy tea was good, on a fire made of wood, baked beans, was what we mostly ‘et’
Those days this was scrub, didn’t have a tub, driving home the smell, not beautiful
Mum was diplomatic, but Dad, not sympathetic , “Paul, you pong pewtriful!”
Far cry from today, reckon that I’ll stay, me and my horse, like Mr Ed and Wilbur
Build a pine cottage there, sit back on my chair and savour the sights…of Yarrabilba!
Paul Wincen,
Woodridge.
