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)

Touch of Candlelight


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ My last lit candle before I move today. I used the candle holder for a hasty Chrissy decoration display and the candle is embedded in stones. In the background is the upstairs misty, rainy street view on Saturday afternoon.

Manic Monday prompt ~ Candle ~ Scheduled post ~ I move today.
Please forgive me if I do not visit you.

Candlelight of warmth
Steady glow in scattered mists
Candlelight of hope
