Country Kids

Country Kids
A stream, green grass, a hill,
The estuary, marram grass, and the ocean.
Fresh air, blue skies and lots of cows.
Country kids, doing as country kids do.
A Saturday, a big Saturday, race day.
Primed and pumped, washed and polished.
Nerves and excitement, adrenalin flowing.
Awaiting the starter’s orders.
Country kids, doing as country kids do.
Fresh air, blue skies and lots [...]

Deep down inside of me is something I can’t hide,
Welling, screaming, crying to be heard.
Deep down inside of me holds no fear,
Deep down inside of me will prevail.
‘Cause truth has no bounds, truth takes no captives,
‘Cause truth is strength, truth is force.
Because if you look truth in the eyes, you have entered eternity,
Because if you [...]

Australia
A pelican sitting on a streetlight,
A cockatoo eating my TV aerial.
An opossum stealing cookies from the coffee table,
And a kookaburra killing dead meat.
I got stung by a caterpillar,
Bitten by an ant.
Killed by a red back spider,
And killed again by a red belly black snake.
Dead flat on my back,
In the hot red dust.
Under a gum tree,
Scoring [...]

Oh it hurts so good

Muscles ache a little, at least for me, but a fun day was had at the fun run. Team Vineyard was Mattijs who ran the 10km, Me who ran the 6km. Sharon and Danius who walked the 3km, Ieva who skateboarded the 3km and Vika  who scooted the 3km. A great day.

Well I started running [...]
