Robert Verdon, #125, Heard In the Rumble of an Extinct Volcano

[translated for children from the Mountain tongue]

Some

 

call me

 

Mount Ainslie.

 

I rise between

 

The Tinderries and the Brindabellas.

 

The younger hills about me

 

Claim that the view has changed

 

Over the past two hundred years.

 

That is less than a MINUTE to me.

 

I will have to look more carefully.
