Rhyme and Reason is a collection of short stories, limericks and poems. Many are funny, some are tragic and some are fiction, Some comment on politics and current events, but most are snippets of lives of real people that are either amusing

or interesting.

In the tiny hamlets of Wollombi and Dooralong,

in rural New Sout Wales, where the author farmed for a time, lived old people, whose stories are from an era when story-telling was the entertainment, now almost totally replaced by commercial TV, streaming, and mega shows in huge auditoria.

These characters had the space and freedom to

be eccentric and unique, in an era that we will not see again, more's the pity. The author was privileged to be there, to listen, then later, reproduce some of their stories for posterity - an honour indeed.
