an hour ago
as we lay your coffin
in the red brown earth
a mob of kangaroos
bounded by
down in the vale
at the bottom of the hill.
amazing in their strength
and synchronicity
the thunderous noise
a more than, fitting goodbye
the world itself ... resonated
with one last joyous round
of applause..and then a quiet
goodbye

an hour ago
as we lay your coffin
in the red brown earth
a mob of kangaroos
bounded by
down in the vale
at the bottom of the hill.
amazing in their strength
and synchronicity
the thunderous noise
a more than, fitting goodbye
the world itself ... resonated
with one last joyous round
of applause..and then a quiet
goodbye
sue, whom we buried today,
was both an actress and teacher of the theatrical arts.
an unexpected.... but amazing
final farewell.
