Uluru
Poem By Mick Leigh

Heart of the land,
your deep buried spirit will rise again,
to reclaim the long lost vanished creatures hidden within you.

Gondwana you are the living heart,
the dreaming giant,
temple of dance,
where the spirits sleep.

Fountains of song,
where the desert wind sings.
Remember the past.

Home of the starmaker,
you bask in the sun,
drink from the clouds,
count the passing of stars.

Blood red heart beats each thousand years.
Timeless mountain,
shelter of spirits,
gave birth to the Rainbow Serpent,
and life to the land.

Watching in silence,
you will always remain,
the sacred spirit which will return.

For I am, I am, lore of the land
I am Uluru.
