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)

Carry on Tuesday #56 ~ This week our prompt is the opening words from Salman Rushdie’s book The Enchantress of Florence:
In the day’s last light......

SOOC Sunday #83

Whispers
In the day's last light

Knowing whispers
In the last day's light

Vacuumed chaos
In the last light of day

Shivering silence
In the last light
