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)

If a pink elephant
Is
A flying swirl of hallucination
And a pink elephant stall
Is
A bargain stall of bits and pieces
Is
A pink elephant bus
A go anywhere
(With anyone)
Flying
Dream machine?

How lovely to have a pink Elephant Bus. And your poem goes well with it. Thanks for the visit!

Because of your funky pictures, I am seeing those odd shots everywhere now and laughing...like today, I saw a milk tanker truck in a truck wash, the back of the truck's tank said "Got Jesus"...I drove around the block to get a shot and the truck was gone...did I really see it...

Have a wonderful weekend friend...
