A Bushman's Song Comments

But it's time that I was movin', I've a mighty way to go Till I drink artesian water from a thousand feet below....so nicely expressed! A wonderful poem..5 stars.

Excellently written poetic narrative of country life from the viewpoint of a skilled farmhand. A wonderful read, great style and enjoyable content.

The pack-horse runs behind us, for he follows like a dog, And we cross a lot of country at the old jig-jog. a very good poem. tony

Bush poetry at its very best, banjo and Lawson Australian greats, give everyone a laugh

It is a well executed poem on Bushman by Banjo Paterson.

A well written poem of a bushman who is wandering all the time. Good narrative poetry.

A well written poem narrating the story of shift. Awesome work. Admirations.

Sing song adventure. One can almost hear it sung around a campfire as they hunt for their next destination and a hope to be treated with dignity. You can hear them sing the repeating stanza- " Shift boys shift" Fun working song.
