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)

C is for Collage of Clouds

ABC Wednesday prompt ~ C is for collage of clouds
~

Clouds are lights
Beaming rays of hope ~
The gift of changes
~
Clouds are eyes
Many eyes watching
Protecting with love
~
Like faces
Gently just being
There for the homeless
~

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Dramatic winter clouds over Port Phillip Bay
~
Like dramas
Darkly performing
Brazen excitement
~
Like colours
Streaming rainbows from
A filtered paintbox
~
Clouds are wings
Even when the days
Bite with winter chills
~

lovely colage - esp. the arches that add an interesting detail & the luminescence of the 2nd colage.
