AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Some "Poetry is..." on HubPages

~~~

Poetry is the Best Real Estate on the Market

~~~~~~~~~~~


I have taken a somewhat zany view of poetry in my latest article on HubPages. Imagine "shopping" for poetry. Where would you find it? Try the hardware, the hairdresser, the medical centre and even the shoe shop. Poetry is a vital part of life, more than you may realise. It is far more than sentimental goo-ga that gets dragged out just for Valentine's Day. Poetry is precious real estate that belongs to everyone. Call on your poetry broker, your news channel, your poetry wizard or angel, your fragrant essence of "YOU" any time, day or night. This property is always yours, to do with it what you will. No one! And I mean no one can take that gift, that blessing from you!

POETRY IS NEWS
Poetry is the latest news on the spiritual news stand.
Poetry always makes the main headlines of the day.
Poetry glows as a cover story.
~
Poetry is a dynamic editorial.
Poetry is a letter-to-the-editor, the voice of "the little one".
~~
Poetry is a hot gossip column.
Poetry is the Special Liftout in "The Age".
Poetry is the best sports coverage ever.
Poetry is the glossy magazine with the latest fashion pics.
~

Poetry acknowledges every radio wave and TV channel.
Poetry graciously accepts top billing on current affairs programmes.
~~~

Poetry is the Lotto draw. Every ticket is a winning number.
