A Pantoum poem of repeating lines using a borrowed line from
“This and That” – in this early dancing of a new day
The Outback
in this early dancing of a new day
a fresh adventure awaits
are we ready?
do we have all that we need?
a fresh adventure awaits
we’re hitched, strapped, hatted, and packed
do we have all that we need?
have we forgotten anything?
we’re hitched, strapped, hatted, and packed
we’ve got a plan for no plans
have we forgotten anything
to enjoy the journey?
we’ve got a plan for no plans
are we ready
to enjoy the journey
in this early dancing of a new day?
