Magic Quills

Sometimes
There are views
You simply love
For no particular reason
~
There is busy clutter
No real focal interest
A wish-washy mire of indefinite colour
And it all seems cramped into
The nether regions of
A no particular somewhere
~
And yet
There is something about
Those feathered quills
Resting in foamy tides of the sky
Resting innocently above a tiny snippet of
A child's world
That makes the whole confusion
Simple
Magic

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ View from Arthurs Seat at Franklin Lookout, Mornington Peninsula, Victoria, Australia. This is looking south toward Rosebud over Port Phillip Bay.

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Another perspective.
The curving peninsula in the distance includes the beautiful seaside town of Sorrento (where Melbourne really began) and magical Portsea.
Point Nepean is right at the end opposite the end of the Bellarine Peninsula. In between is the entrance to Port Phillip Bay (from Bass Strait) known as The Rip.

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Here is Arthurs Seat Road curling around the mountain. This view is looking north toward Mount Martha. Melbourne is further north round the curve (left in the picture) of the bay.

Mornington is just behind. The whole peninsula has been named after this area.

Mountain wonderland
Wander the sky without wings
That's a miracle
~
Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ If you enjoy the sky and love the feeling of being a part of the sky, any of the lookouts on Arthurs Seat mountain are a great place to stand and dream awhile. Sometimes you may be lucky to be on the mountain when it is completely wrapped in cloud.
O what a feeling!
