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)

A Summer's Day


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Overlooking Port Phillip Bay from the Dromana Hills, Mornington Peninsula

One Single Impression prompt #46 ~ A Summer's Day
~

A summer's day is time for waters
Time out to sail or swim blue waves
Time to feel the rays of sun
Time to see holidays
Time to hear music
Time to be free
Time to live
Time in
Warmth

I've never seen your child's face ~ Bloggers Unite

Pic from Open Learn
~
I've never seen the raw eyes of war
Terror laden face of the young
Cradling a weapon of death
Tight in innocent hands
Humanity's shame
Lonely young heart
Beating cold
Frozen

I wish it was my photo ~ Nonets for Sunday Scribblings

Pic by iamthez on Deviant Art ~ The Wall
~
I always love the unusual
Perhaps the different angle
Perhaps the different tone
It could be the lighting
Perhaps the topic
But it's not mine
I just view
A shot ~
Yours
~
Mine
So odd ~
I look up
A towering wall
A cotton wool sky
Strange contrasting lighting
Sharp textured brown and white tones
A day from a fresh new angle
Miracles from the unusual

Poetic Pieces of Life ~ Bouncer ~ for 3WW Prompt #LXXX

Pic by kruckwald on Deviant Art ~ Mysterious Ways

3 words ~ parallel + bounce + mysterious

There is a strange light in the darkness
Thin gold rope snaking round gaunt trees
Mysterious glowing growth
Bent on sliding somewhere
Parallel system
Knowing unknowns
Beyond

Bounce

Poetic Pieces of Life ~ Perspectives

Pic by gilad on Deviant Art ~ Proximity
~
A grey cloudy day is sad and dull
Or is it one of soft dreamings?
Sunshine days mean happiness
Or are they cruel lights?
Stairways to heaven
Or obstacles?
Walls mean stop
Or care?
Glass?
