Simon Townsend: Pioneer of Australian Children's Television
A tribute to Simon Townsend, creator of Wonder World, celebrating his contributions to Australian children’s television and his lasting legacy.
A man of few words, give him time
He begins with "Well Yeah"
Politics, Economy, Weather and Crime
Talk of cars and stories of past
Lost in the wonder, the play has been cast
Sunday arvo, just like clockwork
the sound of, the big green Merc
Off he goes, where he knows
Serenity and the wind blows
The impact of knowledge and friendship, when found
Can never be silenced or muted of sound
Words will be remembered, a phrase that will do
A Bourbon, a Cruiser, maybe one or two
What about a "Drinkie Poo"?
All the above is what we know that he said
His story has not ended, there are more pages to be read.
"Toodle-oo" to a unique friend
Simone, John and Family
