Letter from Australia

This is a weekly update from Australia, written by a person who has a tendency to ramble (one of the main features of bloggers, maybe?). Inspired by the one and only Alistair Cooke, recently departed in April 2004, age 95.

Who is My Neighbour?

The father who toils day and night
The mother whose smile, radiant and bright
The brother who marries at age twenty nine
The sister who lusts after song and wine
The teacher who challenges and guides
The student whose entire hope frailly rides
The migrant who in English will not speak
Yet in other tongues will his discourse not be weak
The elderly soul whose wrath afflicts all
The feminine bigot who fears walking tall
The young couple, whose love transcends all strife
The dame, singly focused on reconciliation with life
The soul within, that houses all I know
The one person through which all love will flow
