LEST WE FORGET
My father’s father rode to war
He never spoke of what he saw
Ramrod straight and carved from steel
I took him to the mountains wild
He’d not been there since a child
Blue Waterholes down to Long Plain road
He searched the horizon with an eagle eye
We stopped the night off Port Phillip trail
I listened in awe to his mountain tales
But a boy when he left for war
Childhood gone for evermore
The morning light came cool and slow
Plains and valleys cast in eerie glow
A wildling Bay stepped from the swirling mist
Head help high and proud
This is the horse that served me well
He carried me through a living hell
Ancestral blood courses through his veins
I can see it in his eyes
I know it’s not the same brave horse
My Mahogany was abandoned to the sands of course
I left him on that fateful shore
My heart stopped there evermore
The Brumby fixed us with his gaze
My father’s father recalling yonder days
His hands trembled and his voice shook
When the horse walked to his side
Broke so many a soldiers heart
That day, alone, forced to depart
History has not served them well
Now the Brumbies face a living hell
My father’s father cried.
Nelle's journey 
Get rid of the politicians, leave the wild horses alone.
The soldiers could not bring home their horses, that was a huge tragedy, and should never be forgiven.
The wild brumbies can be traced back to those horses that were left overseas.
We are proud Australians, proud of what?
We now show utter disrespect for our heritage and our WW1 soldiers and the memory of their brilliant, couregeous, loyal horses. There is a living memory that politicians are now killing off, a tragedy.

Hi Nelle
We could get rid of the criminals in the corporation governments if the sheeple would wake, so we could start up more community assemblies, or similar, all across Australia to provide our own community elected reps, by way of completely honest and open community run elections, the elected reps could be recalled if warranted, no career politicians. Then take back our communities from the UN run local corporate governments. Seems like a big ask, there needs to be a big shock to wake the sheeple.
What you are doing with your site is what I am talking about – right down to a personal level in every stolen community in every area of Australia.
Cheers

Indeed ron if only we could get through to the many who are blindly going forward into oblivion -Aussies are not known to stand together against an attack -these days the attack is coming from within and they are not grasping that-keeping the faith a situation can change quickly -perhaps Clive Palmer could be the person to implement such as you suggest -he has money and is a patriot
