symbolises the author's love of her home country- Tamborine Mountain, QLD, Australia and for the pristine state of the land and the vegetation. She also has a deep seated love and respect for the people who are linked to the land; in this instance, one of the European itinerant drovers. She sees the people as integrally linked to the landscape and expresses a fervent desire to keep the scene unaltered, unfettered by modernity, unblemished. The language is simple, colloquial but very effectively expresses her heartfelt emotions
