AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Earmarked deep midnights of tears - great line, I'm thinking the wires could be like people transmitting ourselves to each other, like when we call each other on the phone but never could really say what we meant, am I reading too much into your poem? anyway, feels like you would talking about how lonely the world is especially in the midnight hour

Very good poem here but, I feel there is a hint of sadness. Tears of midnight makes me feel someone's staying up late and worrying. Nice job. Have a nice day.

Amazing how many layers are woven into these few words. Nice job, for sure!

WOW...had to get the Funk and Wagnall out on this one...
'Earmarked deep midnights of tears', how beautiful, yet woeful, like having been there.

The first thing I thought when I saw this photograph was, "This woman is a problem solver.". I love this post and pic, it's great, better than a Tahitian sunset.
