Sacred Kariong Land: Beautiful Bambara
by Suzie Palmer → (All Poetry by Suzie Palmer)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

79.5 hectares of Sacred Land, 10 minutes from my home were almost carelessly sold. Australian National Parks need to claim it for ongoing protection...


Poem Artwork

Sacred abode of the Powerful Owl
Red crowned toad-let
 Giant Burrowing Frogs too
of significant Micro Bats
Endangered flora
extremely rare fauna on view

Bambara is a home deeply revered
So culturally significant
Only our wise elders understand
The sensitive vicinity’s prolific ecological diversity
 Crucial flora and fauna needs
The ancient and sacred existence of Aboriginal sites
Proclaiming a living past
 Australia’s living history
Etched upon materials destined to shine in the light of day
Not tragically lost to fleeting development
 
‘This area has the greatest diversity of rock art in the world’
The world’s foremost authority of Indigenous rock art
Jean Clotti, has had her say
Many Sacred engraving sites are not even on the official National Parks Register
What will it take to ensure this Sacred Land stays?
To bear its ancient past, and fragile, vital organisms
to entertain our guests
with bush-walking, bush-tucker, bush-talking
Pristine waterfalls to relish
 
The adjoining National Park attracts 100 visitors a week
to the Mysterious and Famous Egyptian Hieroglyphs
playing a major part in Central Coast Folklore
for generations at least
 
Reasons are endless, the evidence is clear
we have an 80 year legacy to protect Kariong’s Sacred land
At Beautiful Bambara
Let the endangered plants, birds, animals, and history be!
Protect Nature’s pure true beauty
for the rest of time to see
