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)

Haiku Challenge #24 ~ Dream Walks



Even round life's rocks
Dream walks wait for those who seek
Always tread slowly




Written for The Haiku Challenge 2012 - Day 24 – February 24th – Words: Dream Walks Thanks to Rachana Shakyawar of Humming Today because the phrase 'Dream Walks' was coined from her poem

Sweeping Coastline


A view of the Mornington Peninsula coastline on Port Phillip Bay between Fisherman's Beach and Schnapper Point.

Sweeping, tiny beach
Like a sheltered wilderness
Of sea, rocks and sands

Overload?


Jet ski a little overloaded with water enthusiasts? at Fisherman's Beach, just south of Mornington on Port Phillip Bay.

Summer water sports
The joy of riding the waves
Adrenalin rush

Subdued close of day
A kind of hush calms the waves
Soft wings fly homeward

Ruffled But Still


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Seagulls lined up on a wall at Fisherman's Beach, Mornington Peninsula.
As I only focused on the first seagull, the others look like a strange, fading echo!

The wind chill factor
Soft feathers may seem ruffled
But the soul is calm

No Goodbyes


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Trail of late afternoon Autumn light at Fisherman's Beach, Mornington Peninsula, Port Phillip Bay
~
Carry on Tuesday #50 ~ This week our prompt is a quote from author
Richard Bach:
Don't be dismayed by good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again.
~

When it seems there's loss
Don't intimate dark goodbyes
Avoid locked closures

Journeys are just change
Farewell means inner promise
Boomerang culture
