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)

Carry on Tuesday #69 ~ This week our prompt is the first words of Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn first published in 1884:
You don’t know about me.....
~

The beauty of space
Open skies and open seas
A small boat waiting

You are so grounded
But you don't know about me
I'm just adornment

You are successful
But you don't know about me
I'm just your trinket

Routine or new worlds
The wonder of space to dream
Tomorrows' choices
~

Toned with enigmatic magic

Enigmatic textured beauty

Quartering
An illusion
Of another
Framed
