The ubiquitous wild Black Swans

What can one say about them that hasn't been said before. One of my favorite poems is Black Swans by "Banjo" Patterson who said it all.

Thanks for that Poetic suggestion, Tark
I had never read it before.
Poor old Banjo was very homesick and lonely when he wrote that.

Nice shots Tark, you should leave Sandra's Swans alone or you will get into trouble.

Denis - A remarkable man was the Banjo. I once could recite Black Swans verbatim. I have two volumes of his complete works including his Essays.

Tassie - I am ALWAYS in trouble with Sandra, mate so what diff'rence does it make!

Lol, Tark you are not alone, thats why Trucks were invented so a bloke could climb in one and disappear for a while.

Tassie, they say that a woman always has the final word in an argument - anything after that is the start of another argument ... that's how it is with Sandy! Yeah the truck idea is a good one - away for days on end, come home for a decent meal, a kiss and a cuddle and away you go again ... now that's what I call civilized!
