Amblin' About Australia

Now that I am getting to understand how to use this modern medium of communication, today I have been able to post two new items.

As my recent publication - Bootin' About The Bush has recieved a modicum of success I am considering a new collection with the title - Amblin' About Australia.
As time permits, I will post a few examples.
Should anyone see fit to comment now or at a later time, those comments will be appreciated.

Rimeriter.

bloody country

I've got 'er in me veins,

'er trials'

'er tribulations,

'er sorrows

'er pains.

MY AUSTRALIA

Australia. My Land, one nation and free,
an island of beauty encircled by sea.
Great mountain ranges deserts of gold,
mysterious secrets yet to be told.

Plains so extensive rivers and gorges
beauty and splendour a canvas it forges.
Snow-capped escarpments waterfall spun
crystals of brilliance vibrate in the sun.

Myriads of rainbows banking in flight
birds in a spectrum of colour and light.
My land, Australia much more to behold
an artistic canvas, green, silver and gold.
