Why 1,575 haikus? Because my darlingest Annelies Marie Frank lived 15.75 years in this world.

Aurora Australis



I love Australia -
the distinct quality of her
I learned to know well.

Australia's different -
as each Country must be so,
people, problems, all.

Australia taught me
many a thing - first mateship,
then fairness, and nature.

Qualities I love
because they have become mine.
And so, I'm grateful.

And so I
remember.
