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)

We have had more grizzly weather recently, so it was time to delve into the archives.

Rubies in the Mists

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ School basketball/netball court on a very foggy morning
I am still on a quest for finding some ruby red in unusual places. Imagine my surprise when I go to work, and, there looming out of the mist is "a ruby"!

Ruby Tuesday prompt

A fog-bound morning
Shapes sidling, looming in mists
Soulful grey canvas
~
I was offered blindness
But determined to see
I was offered silence
But determined to speak
~
Confusing lighting
Waiting for real substance
Like a paintbrush poised
~
I walked in silence
But determined to speak
I was blinded
But determined to see

Like shimmering wool
Threading the sky with
Lucent dreams and
A magic carpet for
The journey

A cloudy morning
Blooms with
Brightness

Magical Winter Morning

Pic on Flickr by Gemma Wiseman ~ Like a fantasy world on Dromana beach, Mornington Peninsula
~
Skywatch Friday prompt
~

Like wisps of sorbets
Powdered puffs of morning light
Like fresh, new make-up
~

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Layered lights at Dromana beach
~
Like glowing icing
Sunrise with lashings of cream
Like divine desserts
~

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Mystic light at Dromana
~
Like feeling songlines
Mystic wonderland of dawn
Like real fantasy
~

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Distant mystery at Dromana
~
Like old darknesses
Peeling wells of memories
Like inspiration
