Cymbric Vale
I believed that I was rural … that I lived in country style,
where the city was close handy … that big distance was a mile.
Trains and buses ferried daily; a freeway ran close by …

See

See how her hair has thinned: it doesn’t seem
like hair at all, but like the airy moult
of emus who outraced the wind and left
soft plumage in their wake. See how her eyes

Discrimination
by Michael R. Burch
The meter I had sought to find, perplexed,
was ripped from books of "verse" that read like prose.
I found it in sheet music, in long rows
of hologramic CDs, in sad wrecks
of long-forgotten...

Versatile Vapourisation
Mountains mourn a mildew. Such a deity of prowess. What a cumbersome lot those pickles. And oh look there, a pretty formation of moths in a tree. Thunderbeds are ghosts. And who would count the...

Memories of An Australian Childhood
From England's dark blackout
We came to these shores
I and my siblings
In refuge from war.
How enchanted we were
With all we saw.
First Sydney's fine harbour
And her bridge of one span
Then the azure blue sea
The long beaches of...

Basting Brought Breads

A Wicked Holiday
Have I got a deal for you?
A little island I found, and
Yer, you guessed it,
It has a price tag.
The white wash from the
Blue ocean waves is dancing on
Golden beaches, inviting your
Imagination to come and play,
The...

Flamingos in the mud with wet flat feet,

They preen and rest in their Mangrove nest.

In Stars Above
What I see in stars above is extremely wearisome,
with useless inane details that I wish I never knew.
Light years, space-time, black holes, big bangs,
myriads of pricks 'n specks a billion miles away - who...

The Great Kiwi Debate
Our great debate is about to start
Over which aspect is the essential part
Of the word 'kiwi' -- Is it that strange-looking bird
Or is it the green, fuzzy fruit that...

Whispering Mysteries
Australian Stars are shining
in a southern night,
beating with a heart
streaming with no fright
Visions in a land
that first made up the dream,
all that you can see
is not what it may seem
Mysteries in a place
where no white...

Marred fictions of emus, ostriches
dip their heads neath, were hailed
by Ancient Rome's false divination,
of individuals, whose conquest of
enshrining their implied role.
Emancipated exacters, whereto,
the subjugators of the unlearned
majority, daily context by untruths,

The eggs of chickens are very small,
But their use is quite versatile
Compared to the eggs of emus...

Witchy Poo From Dunedoo
I'm Witchy Poo from Dunedoo,
I'm a flaming outback witch,
You won't see me rounding cattle up
Or digging in a ditch.
I like to cast spells,
Just like those city witches do,
I've cast so many spells outback,
Successful ones too.

Kookaburras Calling
Heard the kookaburras calling
Saw the snake upon the ground
In the distance rain was falling
Was no shelter to be found
The wind was starting to turn cold
Not much sunlight did remain
Light'ning flashed, the thunder rolled
Emus scattered 'cross...

rhododendrons
Ah, the rhododendrons, dear and bright,
Look at them for a moment, three seconds,
Seek them in the streets, in silence,
Explore the small multicolored gardens,
They are pink, purple, white, shiny, red.
Ah dear rhododendrons, they are crazy,
They drove...

Awesome Summer
Here,are warm times.
Out up in the sky is the golden sun,
Shinning brightly on all.
A food for green plants and the likes;
moulds,sea weeds too.
Featured birds,four-legged land animals.
Agile social insects,out in the woods,
hunting for grains and meats.

Kym the Koala
Kym the Koala liked to climb
And munch gum leaves all the time
In the hot Aussie sun
Up early munching leaves and having fun
He saw jumping kangaroos
And running large emus
But he did not want to be like...
