Nymph of Ningaloo
The Nymph of Ningaloo has vanished from the reef,
and now I walk the empty shores consumed by grief.
The hopes and dreams of summer have deserted me.
The footprints in the sand…washed away by the sea.
from Chime

Thanks for reading Barry. Ah, the Nullarbor Nymph… I need to find out more about her. There was a film about her too
