Erratic flying of the entwined dragonflies
Above the dark waters of the waterhole
A lonely cormorant cruising around it
Slowly walking up the bank
Opening up its wings
To catch the last rays of the sun
Before taking to the sky
And fly away to its mate.
The gum trees and the clouds
Reflected upside down
On the bronzed mirror of the overflowing billabong
Quiet moment only disturbed
By the shrieking of the lorikeets
Playing truants In the waterlogged paddocks
The parched land's thirst is satiated
For once after the storm.
Boxing match of two Roos
Letting their ire get the better of them
With smashing powerful uppercuts thrown
Disturbing the forest peace .
