Goodbye Warrandyte
11 Feb, 2015 | What's happening in my writing life
Echoes, whispers, shadows and memories
float along the hallway,
dance at the windows
and waltz in the trees.
The kookaburras follow me
as tears tumble
when I sit
where our goats once wandered
and waited for us,
scrambling up the steps
or standing at the ‘Welcome Home’ gate.
Golden Eyes, tiny Blue Wrens and Wattle Birds
flit and fly amongst the green
pin-pricking the quiet stillness
of this place
which will remain forever
a part of me . . .
Goodbye Warrandyte.
