Being back on the road today has me reminiscing about our unforgettable time in the magical Outback ✨ • I am a child of the Dreamtime People Part of this land, like the gnarled gumtree I am the river, softly singing Chanting our songs on my way to the sea My spirit is the dust-devils Mirages, that dance on the plain I’m the snow, the wind and the falling rain I’m part of the rocks and the red desert earth Red as the blood that flows in my veins I am eagle, crow and snake that glides Through the rainforest that clings to the mountainside I awakened here when the earth was new There was emu, wombat, kangaroo No other man of a different hue I am this land And this land is me I am Australia. Spiritual Song of the Aborigine, a poem by Hyllis Maris Hyllis (Wurundjeri and Yorta Yorta woman) wrote “Spiritual Song of the Aborigine” to share what being one with nature is like, speaking through an indigenous viewpoint
