Aboriginal Home Poem by Ima Ryma

Tale of Aboriginal myth
Tells of Great Mother from the sea
Traveled across Australia with
Rainbow Serpent so there could be
The fall of lots of rain so that
Life could thrive on the desert earth,
Making suitable habitat
For letting Great Mother give birth
To the many peoples who would
Throughout this blessed land now roam,
To be a time and place for good,
Ever Aboriginal home.

It is a tale that still is told
Throughout the land to young from old.
