Welcome

I have an interest in Creative Writing, Calligraphy and Graphic Design.
I've tried to create a visual to most, but not all of my written works. I've found real enjoyment from what I have accomplished so far. I am grateful for the wonderful people who inspire me.



Barossa Valley's Glory

Barossa Valley's Glory

Beneath the sun of South Australia’s glow,
Lies the Barossa, where the vineyards grow.
A valley of stories, rich and deep,
Where German settlers sowed roots to keep.

Through rolling hills, the vines embrace,
A landscape adorned with nature’s grace.
From Shiraz bold to Riesling’s flair,
The wine flows freely, beyond compare.

Tanunda’s charm, Nuriootpa’s call,
Angaston stands proud, historic and tall.
Streets of heritage, whispers of old,
Tales of pioneers, resilient and bold.

In cellar doors, the glasses clink,
Each sip a story, each taste a link.
From century barrels at Seppeltsfield,
To Jacob’s Creek, where legends are sealed.

The morning breeze lifts a balloon sky-high,
Revealing vineyards that stretch and lie.
Patterns of green in a patchwork design,
A scenic feast, a sight divine.

At Maggie Beer’s, the flavors entice,
Gourmet delights, a foodie’s paradise.
Pretzels and sausages, German fare,
With artisan cheeses beyond compare.

The Barossa Farmers Market hums,
With produce fresh where the region thrums.
Local hands craft with passion and care,
The bounty of nature, abundant and rare.

When evening falls, the valley rests,
The sunset painting the hills at their best.
A place of beauty, wine, and song,
The Barossa’s spirit forever strong.

So raise a glass to this wondrous land,
Where history, culture, and nature stand.
The Barossa Valley, a treasure untold,
A jewel of the south, its heart pure gold.
