Seen from the South, one’s focus shifts
With every day my view sun-kissed
Pacific Rim takes pride of place
As here the news is Asia-based.
The TDU or ‘Tour Down Under’
Makes the headlines - cycling wonder!
Melbourne’s
Tennis “hits” the spot
And “Footie” reigns supreme … or not!
Climate change much talked about
Crops destroyed by rain and drought …
Floods cause power line distress,
Bushfire plans put to the test!
Now biting fire-ants come on stream!
Food and rental costs – obscene!
On pristine beaches – not a soul
Suntans perhaps a lethal goal!
Just another snapshot of my week
Where tubs of ice cream reach their peak …
But a cute koala up a tree
Brought home Australia to me!
