Poem - On the banks of Glengallan Creek
As I look across the flats,
I see an old Homestead
Standing there alone
On the banks of
Glengallan Creek.
Back in 1867,
A large double storeyed
Homestead was built
Of sandstone walls and
shingle roof
An owner’s pride and joy.
With a lot of workers
To farm the land
And maids
Who worked indoors
As time moved on an
as people do
Leaving the Homestead
Alone and scared.
With help from thoughtful
people
Renovations have begun
So Glengallan Homestead
Will be grand once again.
