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)

Take Me Home!


Microfiction Monday #37 ~ where a picture paints 140 characters, or even fewer. Susan says:
Photos will be from my own archives; illustrations are from Dover Publications' free clipart sample newsletter.
~

The cruel ropes snake tidily around me. I kneel before wild churning waves. Oh I long to be one with you, Spirits of the Foam. Take me home!
(140 characters)

Sour Fantasy

Pic on Flickr by Gemma Wiseman ~ Year 9 collage response to a theme study of war
~
Writer's Island prompt ~ Fantasy
~
If only war was just
Yesterday ~
A moment buried in the past
~
If only war was just
An autumn leaf
Closing a season
~
If only war was just
A cloud
Passing in the sky
~
But yesterday
Becomes
Many yesterdays
~
Autumn leaves
Recycle
~
Clouds
Pass
And gather again
~
So war
Is some fantasy
Of glory
Souring
Into a
Recurring
Nightmare
