Ayers Rock
The never ending red and torrid dust
Ants, marching, lines, each one inch long
The rock stands tall in dusty land
people fight and bicker where they live
yet strength is gained from giving what we give
each day the marching lines we seem to make
the never ending waste of living time
The Rock, it stands out tall in desert lake
The dingo's, march around the camping ground
The dust, is red and thick it never ends
Yet men, can be the mountain in the wind
set now, to concur dust, as rocks of time
the vultures wait, like dingo's in the dust
the mountains, are the hurdles we must climb
You know, that there are fish upon ayers rock
little guppy's swimming, in there ponds
a secret, hidden in the desert lake
people have, their hidden gifts inside
a secret part, that sometimes learns to fly
a gift, that needs to find the light of day
a secret, we should share in life's display
