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.

Memories

Memories, the elusive nomads
Come and go as they please
Adding water, or flames
Leaving lands fertile and nourished, or scorched and barren

Prediction fails against these agents of old
They will nary be controlled, neither confined
Run their course they shall, even
Amok should they deem fit

All that can be done
Is to stand fast, and
Allow the marauding herd to
Fill your earth to exhaustion
