Revealed


     In Battery Point, two centuries stayed
     Settlers’ cottage, compact, sandstone stoic
     Paired attic windows see civility made
     From grim past pioneering treachery awoke


     Piston motion push n pull combustion 
     Cloudy tea cups cultivate cow cud, churn
     Tangible treaties are carved, thrusting 
     Structure schools crops convened return


     Stood in a line, life dictates we press 
     Our progenies - dominoes, foretell demise 
     Dots identify, dark remains nameless 
     Two sided story - twists a spritely surprise



     Federation funds finds plenty plausible 
     Bundled under blankets, cash in chest reserve
     Heritage heirloom has relic resourceful 
     Epic ends agony against environment of verve



                        18th April

         Ate what our ancestors Sprinkled
