So a friend who knows these things tells me it was Allan Ashbolt, but not in a poem. He’s searching around for it.

I can only vaguely remember someone saying it to me as a child

Behold the man - the Australian of today – on Sunday morning in the suburbs, when the high decibel drone of the motor-mower is call the faithful to worship. A block of land, a brick veneer, and the motor mower beside him in the wilderness - what more does he want to sustain him.

The poem could have been 'Sunday morning in suburbia'. It was in the official Queensland anthology for students in Years 9 and 10, in the 1960s. Can't recall the poet. 'While fork and secateurs recall the only order in the end that comes to matter'
