Golden Wattle Stories, Dreams, and Poems

Kippa  The way he bounces around  He's your friend  He's your family member  He'll always be there by your side  In uneven patches of black and white  Small to medium sized  Ears ready to listen  To you 

Bobby was a street wandering cat that lived at 85 year old Roses house. He loved walking through the front yard with its neat flower beds of peach and red roses in different shades.   Today was a lovely day with blue skies and the sun was shining behind some clouds.  He strolled slowly along the little old cracked concrete garden path then through the little iron fence between the miniature brick front fence.   He walked down the street seeing yellow dandelions here and there and sometimes stopping to paw at the dandelions that were fluffy wishing dandelions and then he watched the fluffy pieces float far far away into the sky.  Down the street he saw a 2 story home with a huge old tree high above him. He walked up the driveway then on the path around the side of the house towards the backyard.  He went through a small picket fence into the backyard where there was just grass and some big trees scattered around the back of the backyard.  Below one...

Milly and her friend Summer thought that it would be a good day to walk to the park pond a few streets away.  The sun was shining and the sky was blue and there were all these lovely white fluffy clouds in the sky. They started walking past all the charming houses and their lovely gardens and slowly up and down the hills in their area.  They walked to a busy road then across the road when all was quiet to the park where the big pond was.  There was so many tall trees at the park and gardens with lots of hedges and neat bushes surrounding the big pond.  There was a little grass pathway around the pond. They walked through all the tall trees then Started walking along the little grass pathway around the pond. There was so many lillypads and waterlillies in the pond floating on the water which looked dark blue but also greenish from the reflections from all the tall trees.  Around a little bend in the path they saw a little group of ducks napping on the edge of the...

When I am haunted by my past  You always warm my soul  You warm my soul  And make me feel safe  With your presence

It was another day, I just woke up, and felt my comfy bed underneath me and saw and felt the sunshine from a new day in my room. I got up to have breakfast, having my banana then a vegetable juice from the kitchen. It was such a pretty day, so I decided to go on a little walk around the back garden. I walked down the steps, then onto the soft grass. It was a pretty little garden with lawn surrounded by a garden bed along the fence bordered by rocks. The garden featured a number of small plants including hibiscus plants that flowered. There was also a big banana tree. And there was a little pond in the corner surrounded by plants. I walked along the edge of the garden bed, loving the feeling of sunshine and being connected to nature, feeling like a fairy. Suddenly I noticed something behind one of the plants. It was a treasure chest! How did that get here? It was a mystery. I decided to open the treasure chest. It was old wood but I got it to creak open. The edges were lined with gold a...

I love exploring and it was a beautiful day so I decided to go for a drive with my friend Laura to Lacey's Creek, near Dayboro, a spot I'd never been before. We set off, on the long drive to Dayboro through the countryside past many tall eucalyptus trees and hills covered in forest. We played forest music in the car, enchanting music that reminded me of the mountains and countryside. We went through Dayboro, the charming little country town then turned right at the pub and kept driving past more charming country houses and beautiful countryside and mountain views. Eventually we turned left at Lacey's Creek Road. This was it, the unexplored area I'd found on my phone's maps. We were so delighted at what we saw. The landscape was of many farms of rolling grassy hills with forest in the distance. We saw many cows grazing in the fields. I loved how exploring new places was like the world opening up to me, revealing how impossibly big the world is. Eventually we came to ...
