He made us laugh many a wild happy night,
all that swearing and Glasgow humour.
A stand-up legend from Carntyne
to Easterhouse (and you thought the Scots were dour!)
A big pal of Gerry Rafferty, singing
And playing together in the Stumblebums
- 'Stick to the jokes, big man, I'm the Paisley songwriter!'
He hated school, he wisnae good at his sums.
Billy made us proud of being Scottish, 'Wha's like us?'
Laughing at Parkinson's on the Parkinson show:
We all have to go someday! I hope he dies peacefully, ea-sy!
In his big yellow banana boots with Pamela by his side.
This book represents a thirty-day period of my poetry journal. Each poem addresses
the dominant thoughts occupying my mind during the early morning hours of a given
day.
Each person is but a grain of sand resting beside the sea. This thought sets the tone for Jill Eisnaugle’s latest poetry collection, Beside Still Waters.
