Newly hitched we hit

pop-hot spots in Sydney.

Occasion marked: Us.

 

Tickets to ‘The Lion King’

in old Capitol Theatre

took us back to Africa.

 

Sticky date at Doyles

added more weight

to our love waistlines…

 

We watched the river,

Opera House teeming,

Coat-hanger tourists.

 

Sky-high Telecom chats

revolving restaurant

views topped off trip

 

before Aqua chatting,

large-finned silver

swimmers mesmerize.

 

Guinness for St Paddy

raised to Shamrock Green.

Chinese gardens walk,

 

Brolga dance to hotel

suite, (less public for

private celebrations).

Nice rhythm to this and i loved the line " added weight to out love waistlines."

Really good.

Interesting cameo of bright memories, a bit like Jolono's recent 'Under a London Sky' memories of the beginning of a courtship. I liked ''Occasion marked: Us and 'Coat-hanger tourists' too. The Brolga Dance certainly sounded quite public! Rhiannon
