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)

Lovely white roses and perfect Haiku accompaniment. For Today's Flowers I shared red roses at Sacred Ruminations and apricot ones at Happily Retired Gal. In fact, I shared more red roses here for PhotoHunt also.
Hugs and blessings,
