DEAD HEART I am a Big country with lots to see From the red dust plains to the white gum tree There is a people as old as the land Who see things unseen and see the greater plan From a place of times gone by To the now where things do die and where […]
First Fig
First Fig My candle burns at both ends; It will not last the night; But ah, my foes and oh, my friends — It gives a lovely light. by Edna St Vincent Mallay
Can you feel it
I walk along a busy beach People running, walking, talking they are close but out of reach. I see the sky glow from pink to red But many miss this sight as they lay in bed I talk with people I do not know Just a pleasant gidday or a casual hello I see some […]
