she flies tonight
embraces new tomorrows
bids a brief farewell
to yesterdays
she flies tonight
and for a time
suspends the world
in continental crossing
nothing lost
nor quite forgotten
while she flies tonight

Australia
All those posts on fire. This one most of all.
At world’s end,
In beauteous land,
Natural element
Takes a stand,
Creating chaos
Where it dares,
Ribbons of fire,
Crimson flares.
Destruction wrought,
Promethean power
Smothers nature
Day and hour,
Fighting battle’s
Raging roar,
Anguished citizens’
Hearts full sore.
In thoughts and prayers
We offer you
Fellowship
And wishes true,
That all may cease
So peace to reign
In beauty’s bounty
Abide again.
