A social site for poets in Sydney.
The restless Ibis walks
with delicately precise tread
picking its way
through the green, waiving,
whispering reeds
skirting the river of life.
The immutable Ibis
stands high on an outcrop,
surveying the clouds
in aqua blue reflection,
everlasting and sacred
to the god of knowledge.
The soaring Ibis
can never ever forget
Thoth and Seshat
and the temple to all gods.
Penelope, in her haunting mantra,
has told me why.
