I met lovely lass
On a visit down under
In a place called Alice Springs
She made me stop and wonder.

In the Northern Territory
It's the Capital of the outback.
Should I leave my life in America
To Australia should I go back?

She'd never leave her home and family
For life in the USA.
A simply Aussie girl named Abbe
Should I go, or should I stay?

The time I spent in Alice Springs
Were the best days of my life.
I fell in love with an outback girl
Should I ask her to be my wife?

Not a day goes by
That she's not on my mind.
We speak almost everyday
Can I leave my life in America behind?

Abbe from Alice
She simply stole my heart.
My Australian outback love affair.
At 4:05pm, my flight to Sydney Departs.

Are you really going to be on the 4:05 flight to Oz or is Abbe just a figment of your imagination? If Abbe's real, then best of luck with your decision. The quandry of distant love is patently clear in your lovely poem. Annie from Oz

Author Comment:

Well Thank you Annie from Oz...Abbe is real, but the story follows a friend of mines quandry after he met her in Alice Springs...and he did eventually move to Australia and they've been happily wed for nearly 2 years now.

Thanks again, and stop by anytime!
