Ancient history is right at our fingertips more or less,
A variety of different symbols represent different things.
What a privilege to be able to see such amazing drawings,
The stories are told through said drawings, the details, and the colours.
Centuries of lost tradition and culture now found once again through these “cave drawings”,
Scorching sand as red as blood,
Tall soldiers that once marched the land now reduced to that of paper,
Australia's once strong and thriving features that had colour now as white as snow.
Sacred sites once stolen now returned to their rightful owners,
A culture that was once faded, now returning to its people.
Traditions returning and being accepted by others, the ancient dreamtime stories making a comeback.
Laws in place, to protect our unique wildlife before it becomes too late.
