Here's the challenge - compose a poem each day for one year, that reflects my agrarian life.
On our hobby farm on the edge of the Monaro my husband Matthew and I raise children (I have eight, though only five remain at home), sheep, goats, chooks, piglets, a milking cow and her calf, fruit and vegies. To support this enterprise I teach in the remotest school in Victoria
- if anywhere in Victoria is truly remote.

The respite of an embrace
When your bucket is full to overflowing,
And you must carefully traverse an uncertain path,
Unaware of the obstacles still to be overcome,
It is in the stability of a firm embrace,
That you find sufficient solace,
To keep moving forward.
