註釋

For the last five years, I gave been hosting Friday Magazine, a news and interviews program on radio station 88.3 Southern FM, based in the Melbourne suburb of Brighton and about a 20 minute drive from home.I start each program with a poem I have written that morning. It gives me a chance to amuse, entertain and occasionally outrage the listeners via a variety of topics - social issues, education, finance, health, politics, the quirky things that happen around the world, and the humorous, engaging or occasionally bizarre incidents I have experienced.Why a poem? A poem is a beautiful thing. It stretches the creator's skills. It can jump from tragedy to humour within a couple of lines. It fills the listener with anticipation. And that, of course, means the likelihood of something rhyming.I have included an introduction for each poem, plus the broadcast date, to set the time and background so the reader can comfortably plunge into it.I hope readers get as much pleasure reading them as I did writing and broadcasting them.
