The Waterfall

                                        Queensland after floods.

WEEKEND IN BLACK AND WHITE

THE WATERFALL

Passing among the lofty gums,

Growing profuse and tall,

After the recent deluge

We spied a waterfall.

HAPPY HIKERS

Off for a walk in the country

On a lovely Summer's day.

Enjoying a Second Childhood!

Boys and girls come out to play.

Outings like these are delicious;

Striding without a care,

Chattering as we're walking;

Breathing the great fresh air.

This is the Hunter Valley

And a visit never fails

To make me really grateful

That I live in New South Wales.

PS

This is proving to be a very busy week and I'm wondering if my voice will hold out till the Concert on Friday. Yesterday, at choir, there were only three altos so we had to sing our hearts out and today I was asked to read my poems for much longer than usual, on top of a large meal too.

I was invited to entertain the Redhead VIEW Club on the occasion of their 48th anniversary.

It was an excellent audience, as they laughed in all the right places!
