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)

Screaming bright colours
Gaudy galactic gold glows
Bombard brazen blues

You taught me a new word : Gaudy! When I read Gaudy, first I think at the architect. So, I didn't understand!
Both words, in fact, go together well.
