Looking to the horizon with an uninterupted view
rolling hills of red sand and spinafax as far as you can see
disappearing in the distance
a line of ghost gums follows the serpents trail
leading to a water hole that has long been forgotten
reflections play  on the sides of the cliff faces and signal
the ending of day, welcoming of the evening to come
The waning moon is high in the  sky and in the distance
there is the sound of merriment coming from the tree tops
to warm the hearts of the ancestors who once lived here.
Spirit fills this land and speak to my heart.
Here I feel at peace
 
Cara 2003

Lovely Cara...when I go to the coast, I feel that way, like I've been here before, such peace...

Such a sense of continuity, Cara. There are some places that really do speak to us. Would it be rude to ask where this is?

Absolutely wonderful read, Cara, reminding me of some of the Indian burial grounds and other previous tribal sites...
where the past feels still in the present, yet offers no threat, only calm spirituality, thanks for this, hugs, Zy

Hi to all who have posted back to me.
Thankyou so much for you kind words.
 
Gordon the place I speak of in this poem its the pilbara region of Western Australia. It is isolated and natural untouched by man. You can look as far and the eye can see and see an untouched landscape. The place I was visualising was Kalamina Gorge in the Karijini National Park. It is my most favourite place in the world. It is a place that my soul is at peace. It has a water hole where you can swim and after rains there is a waterfall. I have visited this place many times over the years and it always has the same impact and my love for the place deepens.
 
hugs to all
Cara
