Loop Poetry Contest contest entry
Contest Entry for a Loop Poem:
John Frances Peggoty born in 1864 in Limerick, Ireland was only the size of a seven-year-old child. He traveled to South Africa to learn how to handle ostriches. With a plan in mind, he had a special saddle made for an ostrich. He then came to Australia. He terrorized the people of the Coorong and after he was shot, crawled into the bush. His body was never found and his 'stash' worth millions still lies unclaimed.
A B C B rhyming. The Coorong is Aboriginal land inhabited by the Ngarrindjeri tribes. Coorong is 150 K from Adelaide SA.
