What I have noticed mainly in this town
is the lack of traffic lights, the polite
motorists on the round-abouts,
and the way white cabbage moths
flock in their hundreds like
petals blwoing in the wind.
Ahh, country people are so
kind and friendly - and slow
to serve. No rush. This is
the bush without cattledogs
and station-hands. You gotta
pick your spot for coffee
and the kids still flash by
on their skateboards, per-
forming stunts and skills
that won't earn them a job.
I haven't learnt to hate
the Indian Mynah birds yet
but the locals do. And I
love the way spring sunshine
shines on my arse as I
sit down to shit in the back loo.
It's the simple things in life
that make each day enjoyable.
