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)

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Interesting puddle patterns on a basketball court.
In the background, those white shapes are corellas seeking grass seeds.

Elastic bubbles

Awesome haiku! I especially like, "Like transient wanderings", sounds like me sometimes.

Oh we need some rain around here so bad, but at least it has cooled off - no 100 degree weather this week like it has been all summer!

Cool reflections in the glassy water, even if it is a puddle. :-)
