The Event is probably the biggest Book Festival in Australia and “I’ll be there this weekend, March 23rd & 24th”, in one of the many “Book Trader Marquees”.

Featured Image Above: Frankie gives me that sad brown eyed doggie stare as I walk out the front door to go to the Book Fair at 7.30 this morning.
Setting our table displays up at 8.30 am … I’m ready for the 9.00 am start
After Midday
I’m not walking barefoot anymore
My old paws are too tender and sore
After attending the local bookstore
And there is no need to keep score
While time allows me to use the front door

I Found the Key in Shanghai
Will this be the key?
To my writer’s beehive
I am excited
Expectations are high
I am nervous
An unknown poetry guy
I am fully prepared
The tummy is full of humble pie
I am almost ready
Do I wear a black tie?
Or jeans, and a Leonard Cohen T-shirt
That I found in Shanghai
