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)

What a fun place to be able to walk through the shadows. ;-)

Can't wait to get my usual Saturdays' work finished at my daughters shop so I can get home to writing for the shadows. Always love visiting everyones world of unique shadows. Saturday and Sunday to me are those days of creativity, not those of the work a day world. Time to drink too much coffee and ponder the world around me...and it is a big one now, thanks to my blog family.

Lovely walk in the woods Gemma...wish I was there...

Hey Harriet said...

I know I've said it before but I'll say it again. The area you live in so gorgeous! I feel like I'm on that walk with you (but my feet are a little sore, so may we stop for coffee now? ;) Beautiful tree shadows! I enjoyed your poem too! Have a great Sunday Gemma :)
