Apple Isle Reminisce
Swathes of house strewn hills bathe in after storm sunlight brave
Shocks heavy clouds, knocks gloom away, spotlight locks
Bay's grey sparkle, renewed day brightens, strollers stay
Proud steel bridge carries loud traffic witnessing lifting cloud
Cornelian Bay, revealing lopsided boat sheds remember fish reeling
Domain central space retains natural bush, wildlife remains
Mount Wellington counts months of snow cap, close to town
City called Hobart, unassuming pretty place, subject of this ditty
Sandy Bay, scenic, handy to City, it's here if anywhere to dress dandy
Battery Point deserves flattery, colonial cottages, harbour view smattering
Mona, incredible art loner, architectural wonder, prominent owner
Views from too many places, water inescapable, fresh blue
Gazania's cheerful mania sprawl on steepest hills of Tasmania
Devils ravage meat, dishevel opponents, fight decides levels
Top to tail drive pops frequent amazement, close sea stops
Road journey slowed only by photo moments, memory furrowed
Isle induces many a smile, slow pace invites visitors stay a while.
