mosquito whining now
sleep has gone walkabout
hand on the flyswat
mosquito whining now
sleep has gone walkabout
hand on the flyswat
elegantly limbed Blue gums
Golden on the side of the setting sun
their shadows giving deep resonance
to space and line
Weaving through, a Stockman
on a lightly stepping Golden horse
red Kelpie at heel, sheep mustered
homeward bound for a shower
Brandy and Dry , mutton dinner
cooked on a wood stove, wine
Perhaps a sweet jam roly
with Mrs Edwards fresh cream.....
Bed!
