Fading sunset glare
Lone shapes and fleeting dark wings
Lustre and threat twine

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)

the pic is simply awesome.
"Luster and threat twine".
Now its a known fact that love and fear are taken care of the same part of the brain,same hormones and hence they twine.
I am sorry my baby

Love the simple way you've presented this.
I love that last line.
:)..very cute:)...loved the pic as well
I too like the last line!
it was not a dream, certainly not a memory
lovely ending; evocative
and your words in form are so divine :)
The Glare of Threat
Spooky, but somehow comforting.
Goes so well with the picture, intriuging use of the word twine.
Your words sound so luscious together, and the photograph is gorgeous!
Yes! Very good! I've been thinking of attaching photos to my poetry, lately, and the impact of this certainly inspires me. Thanks for sharing!
gorgeous photo and a really brilliant haiku to complement it.
Stunning photo and haiku to match!
