There's a whole zoo
in the rainforest
Besides the creatures
that we are accustomed to seeing:
the koalas
carpet snakes
brown snakes
frill neck lizards
lace monitors
whip birds
kookaburras
rampant turkeys
and a host of twittering birds
in the rainforest

I have also noticed
leopards
and even an underwater world
The rainforest park
has come alive-
It is wild
with life...

Roaming the rainforest park could be dangerous...leaving you with more than an broken ankle...At first glance, I thought you slipped a real elephant in among your photos!
ReplyDeleteYou were hobbling, then waddling, what now...any change?
In reply to your question, I just snipped that part of the plant off and placed it faaarrr away! :)
Take care,
Wanda
Delwyn: What an intriguing set of photographs - and, of course, your writing takes our minds down whole new grooves! Trunks of trees are beautiful, yet often overlooked because of the showiness of their foliage.
ReplyDeleteEvery day I am amazed at the beauty on display, the creativity, the talent evident on these blogs - yours in particular. Such a treat to come here. How exotic to live in or near a rainforest. What a wonder-full place, this planet that is our home.
OOOOO,Delwyn what a treat again! :O)
ReplyDeleteLove the underwater world and the elerhant,beautiful.Good evening,a peaceful night.
hi delwyn, it's amazing all this variety!!! your eyes are wide open so you see beyond simply seeing. i love that! have a peaceful day. steven
ReplyDeleteHi Wanda
ReplyDeleteFAAAAAAAAAR away as possible I imagine...
I think that elephant is pretty convincing too...
I am ripping off the boot occasionally and walking very tentatively around the house. Out of the house I am rolling along in the boot as fast as one can...
Only 9 days to go...the count down, hasn't it gone quickly?
Happy days

ReplyDeleteI love looking at the world through your eyes. You've preserved youth's fresh and fertile imagination and combined it with the wisdom of maturity.
ReplyDeleteVery creative, Delwyn! I just wouldn't have seen these animals walking alone through the forest without you. You are very special.

I see beauty in everything these days. Fabulous photos, Delwyn and they certainly do stir the imagination!
ReplyDeleteHi Delwyn, Simone and I loved your photos. We think it has the makings of a great kids book!
ReplyDelete(Simone asks if she can be your best friend?....awwwww....)
Hi there Jen
ReplyDeleteI am thinking that in the future when I have grandchildren I will create a book at one of those online sites using the duck stories and posts such as this one...suitable for little ones...
What an honour bestowed upon me...
Please tell Simone that I would love to be her friend...
here is a poem for her,
There are holes in the sky
where the rain comes in
they are ever so small
that's why rain is thin...

Haha, Delwyn, now you've made me go look up Mary Oliver!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
ReplyDeleteEvery photo is so enjoyable.
The elephant is a trunk of a tree?
It looks just like a real elephat's leg. OOOO crocodiles are amazing! Thank you for sharing all these!
Delwyn, you definitely have the give of 'seeing' and not just looking. This was a fun, fabulous post! Blessings!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an imagination! Is there anything extra special in those "large flat whites"?!
ReplyDeleteHi Sapphire
ReplyDeleteThe elephant leg is a pandanus tree trunk. I like to see the animals this way - up close and touch them...
