“Before it’s gone remind me
Show me where the wildflowers grow
Teach me our stories from long ago
Who made the sunrise, where does the moon go?
Walk me back to the land that owns me,
Through the trees that know my name
The animals, plants and birds, we are but the same
On the dust of our earth lay me down.
I am home again.”
Pass it on by Michele ‘Mickey’ Hetherington, New South Wales Aboriginal poet
