It is so much fun
Going to the store
And finding crates
Of mudcrabs alive
And kicking or at
Least moving around
Waiting to be bought
And steamed and
Presented on a
Plate to eat
Shell and all
Not!

Free Association
In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Free Association.”
Rain drops merging with
Golden sandy soil, I call
Australia home
Heart of You
I love the way
You look at me
I love the way
You make me feel
I love the blue
Of your eyes as
They melt into the
Heart of me
And I love the very
Heart of you
Advance Australia Fair
Australian National Anthem
Australians all let us rejoice,
For we are young and free;
We’ve golden soil and wealth for toil;
Our home is girt by sea;
Our land abounds in nature’s gifts
Of beauty rich and rare;
In history’s page, let every stage
Advance Australia Fair.
In joyful strains then let us sing,
Advance Australia Fair.
Beneath our radiant Southern Cross
We’ll toil with hearts and hands;
To make this Commonwealth of ours
Renowned of all the lands;
For those who’ve come across the seas
We’ve boundless plains to share;
With courage let us all combine
To Advance Australia Fair.
In joyful strains then let us sing,
Advance Australia Fair.
Australia, we thank you
Choosing to Live
Every day when I
Awake my beating heart reflects
My choice to live
Lilac
Taken with my iPhone
Decorating the
World with bursts of beauty bright –
Cascading lilac
Once Upon A Time
In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Once Upon a Time.”
Once upon a time
In a land far away
Prince Charming swept me off my feet
And away from unwedded bliss
Thirteen years later with
Two minions and a new life
In a new country –
We celebrated not killing each other
And lived happily ever after
The end
Fake Charm
Take a look at me
At my eyes and my face
And you will see
That I am a shell
Of the person I used to be
From when you entered my life
Uninvited and unannounced
And left again, a whirlwind
Of destruction, leaving your
Fake charm and smile
Fluttering in my heart
Like autumn leaves
Blowing in the wind
Nowhere To Go
You’re the inspiration
For the words that flow
For without your love
Cut off from your arms
I have nowhere to go
Have only these lines
To express the sorrow
I feel, with no escape
Mud and Fun
Crystal eyes so blue
Inner light shining through
When all is done, life is fun!
