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)

Ruby Trailers

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Red trailers at Dromana 7 Eleven

Ruby Tuesday prompt
~
Ruby trailers
For sale or rent
7 Eleven is
Heaven sent
No contract
No catch
No fuss
Can't get this prize
For less
Elsewhere
~
Ruby trailers
For sale or rent
Hitch your rubbish
Or stash a tent
Glow with pride
On your ruby ride
7 Eleven is
A ticket to heaven
~
P.S. A bit of a clunky poem but couldn't escape that "other" song!

Now that's something I've never seen at a 7 Eleven before. I'll have a slurpee and a ruby trailer. :)

7-Eleven trailers are perfect for bringing your super sized Slurpees home with you.

Add me to the list of those who had never seen trailers -- Ruby or otherwise -- "for sale or rent" at a 7-11. Who knew?

P.S. I like your lyrics much better than the original ones. ;-}

Hey Harriet said...

Love the red trailers & really enjoyed your 'clunky' poem! This Ruby Tuesday prompt looks really fun!
