Be my view looking back
Red earth deep, red-tailed black
First landscapes and loves
Clear blue skies above
Calling me down that gravel track
Eucalypts after rain
Remind me who I'm again
On petrichor nights, my memories alight
We're more than we ever could explain
Tidal questions at my feet
Home is where the heart lines meet
Not in distance of the seas
Nor geography
Say hello to the spring
What will this time you bring?
An old self to shed? A new mouth to be fed?
Write me an answer I can sing
Tidal questions at my feet
Home is where the heart lines meet
Not in distance of the seas
Nor geography
Down every dune of your shoreline
I move with the migratory birds
Me and my shadows in a flight path rhyme
A dark murmuration of words
