My footprints etched in time,
Blackman, happy man,
A blissful life in rhyme.
Simple life, hunter’s life,
Wide brown land ahead,
Any direction I could go,
No white man, happy bed.
Food and water a plenty,
All Eco systems alive,
Everyone a gatherer,
At the early age of five,
Coroboree tribal life,
Much better than today,
Living on the bottle.
That white man passed my way.

Hi im aboriginal myself! this is a GREAT poem and I would love to use it for my assignment at school.May I ask, who wrote this peom? If you could please get back to me A.S.A.P that’d be fantastic!! ta
Hey I’m using this poem for an English Assignment because I really appreciate it. (I used a poem from this website a bit oer a year ago) And I was wondering if I could get some background information on Paul Buttigieg because it would be very useful considering there’s nothing in google on him.
Thanks in advance =]
