[hometext] => Oh, what a few snorts of rum will do to a man.
[bodytext] => Out on the lonely Desert On those grasslands low Lives a spirit woman With hands that sow. Sparks of creation From her fingertips Speaking low in whispers Of spirits, fire and sits. The Dreamtime magic lives Within her mystic soul She is only seen at night A shadow, when it’s cold. Hunting for survival And the dunes are her home Wind bends the yellow grasses And she never is alone. She tames the wild dogs At night you hear their howl Of loneliness and of mystery Out o' the dunes that tower. She is the Desert Woman Men darn’t say her name For fear of vicious death Through fire and through flames. Her hair the colour of golden grass She wears her clothes of fur Moccasins on her feet And smells of richest myrrh. Her steed a jet- black stallion Of rich and noble name With fire in his eyes And a long, wild mane. Desert Woman come to me Your beauty is so true I have longed for your warmth I long to be with you. Mystic Lady can you be This man’s concubine Or are you forever A figment of his mind. The cold fog that lies In the gullies deep Causes me to shudder And my backbone, to creep. Desert Woman I see your shadow The shadow that I’ve longed To see you’re form making No one will be wronged. She comes to me there to stand On the Desert so "Come to me, Come to me." I hear her voice so low. The spirits fight within me And as I advance I feel the pain of fire And the stabbing of a lance. Desert Woman you have me Forever in your trance Drifting in and out of sleep Forever to dance. Across the moonlit plains Of our magic spirit land The Poet and the Desert Woman Forever hand in hand.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
