In the dead of night
Telephone ringing three times
Like the dead walking
~
Heavenly chaos
First love was a swirling place
No rhyme or reason
~
Far away island
Just clumps of rhododendrons
Coloured packaging
~
Island castaway
Eden was a savage place
Second chance crumbled
~
Skimped reality
Cold telephone reminders
Wrong number wrong place
~
Three chances to love
Last life is ringing now
For whom the bell tolls
~
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)
