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)

Whispers of Spring

Whispering voice of
Spring hues ~
Angel blossoms
Waiting to
Wing

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Bright spring lights in just one corner of Dromana
~
Some early Spring voices
Sing
(In loud chorus)
The colours of
New days

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Delicate Dromana blossoms

But I love
The tiny
Pink cherubs
Who sing
The colours of
A young
Innocent
Child ~
Briefly ~
Too briefly

as you enter the season of birth,, we enter the cold rains and gray skies of winter.. strange isn't it,, and yet here we both are joined by our words.....

I agree...here you are entering the pastels of a season of growth...and we are entering the long sleep...death, dried flattened skeletons, cold icey fingers...cabin fever...the rape of the utility companies. I do not like winter...can I come play at your house (all winter)...LOL

Beautiful post of lovely spring flowers and poetry! I like the way you've framed in the flowers. Here in Canada, we're moving slowly towards our autumn season.

Spring is whispering to you in lovely bright hues! Autumn is not far off for me. Isn't it funny how topsy-turvy we are!

Hi, Gemma. I am still visiting your blog and I am loving it. I read about your history and saw your lovely pictures and posts. I think Astralia is beautiful! Some places look like Brazil, and the seasons match. Your flowers are graceful. Awesome shots!
