My Country
The love of field and coppice,
Of green and shaded lanes.
Of ordered woods and gardens
Is running in your veins,
Strong love of grey-blue distance
Brown streams and soft dim skies
I know but cannot share it,
My love is otherwise.
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!
A stark white ring-barked forest
All tragic to the moon,
The sapphire-misted mountains,
The hot gold hush of noon.
Green tangle of the brushes,
Where lithe lianas coil,
And orchids deck the tree-tops
And ferns the warm dark soil.
Core of my heart, my country!
Her pitiless blue sky,
When sick at heart, around us,
We see the cattle die -
But then the grey clouds gather,
And we can bless again
The drumming of an army,
The steady, soaking rain.
Core of my heart, my country!
Land of the Rainbow Gold,
For flood and fire and famine,
She pays us back threefold -
Over the thirsty paddocks,
Watch, after many days,
The filmy veil of greenness
That thickens as we gaze.
An opal-hearted country,
A wilful, lavish land -
All you who have not loved her,
You will not understand -
Though earth holds many splendours,
Wherever I may die,
I know to what brown country
My homing thoughts will fly.~ Dorothea MacKeller
I’ve always loved this poem, right now it’s another reminder of why I’m moving back to Australia.
I, like many, am only a first generation Australian but my parents and grandparents embraced the country as their own and quickly became part of the melding of cultures that has made us Aussie’s who we are.
Now, having lived overseas for 8 years, I can see many traits and values that mark us as Australian - and I am, as always, very proud to be one.
love it!
What the hell is with computer parts stores with outdated user-friendless websites that have no payment gateways?
It is not like technology is a foreign concept to these guys?!!? Payment gatways can be externally hosted/outsourced and provide a better user experience.
Frustrating as!

Bleh
Don’t you hate it when you have a disturbing dream and wake up feeling physically sick?

I pretend I need to potty outside, but really I’m just looking for slugs to eat. Mmm, slimy.
