"Colours of Australia" by Bronwyn Bancroft

Deep love of country inspires Bronwyn Bancroft's poetry and the richly layered hues of Colours of Australia.

Each line speaks a different voice, each image stirs a different mood, and all combine to evoke the miracle of colour with which we are surrounded.
