"Like yesterday I remember the glorious aromas coming from my Mum's kitchen. Sponge cake or a scone topped casserole and veges, oven hot scones or damper, hot soup or the look of a glorious bowl of home made ice cream and fruit topping."
To a Billy
By James Cuthbertson
Old Billy, battered, brown and black with many days of camping,
Companion of the bulging sack, and friend in all our tramping:
How often on the Friday night – your cubic measure testing –
With jam and tea we stuffed you tight before we started nesting!
How often, in the moonlight pale, through gums and gullies toiling,
We’ve been the first the hill to scale, the first to watch you boiling;
When at the lane the tent was spread the silver wattle under,
And early shafts of rosy red cleft sea-born mists asunder!
And so, old Billy, you recall a host of sun-burnt faces,
And bring us back again to all the best of camping places.
True flavour of the bush you bear, of camp and its surrounding,
Of freedom and of open air, of healthy life abounding.
You bring us more, with those we love we watched you boil and bubble,
And in the sunny skies above forgot each schoolboy trouble
So not without a kindly glance we eye you in the study,
Although you’ve met with some mischance, although you’re black and muddy!
