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)

Clarity












Dense changing colours 
Twisting ragged confusions
Shadowed glimpse of light


But as you live life
Cling to visions and purpose
Keys to clarity
