Haiku Hodge Podge Trio, Trees and Leaves

Gum trees line the road
To long outback red paddock
To my father's house

Olive green Gum leaves
On wind-swept red-sandstone hills
Flick like Brumby tails

Eucalypt tree leaves 
Are food for our koala's
Round our Billabong

I love how you put everything relating to your whereabouts! Great lines, "...To lone outback red paddock...Flick like Brumby tails..." I love those lines, great and powerful! Awesome Work!!
