Where My Spirit Belongs by Rhubee Neale The peppercorn trees sway with grace, In golden light, they find their place, Leaves glimmering like emerald gems, As sunbeams dance on nature’s hems. Their branches rustle, a soft refrain, A soothing song in a gentle strain, As twilight whispers through the land, Ghost gums stand tall, a regal band.

Ruby Sue by Rhubee Neale
Fictional short story Born from the red ochre dust, a child of the Dreamtime, Ruby Sue carried magic in her every step.

My Aunty Patsy Morton: A Beacon of Artistic Brilliance
Recently, I have been thinking about my Aunty Patsy. I wanted to share with everyone how I am incredibly fortunate to have this remarkable woman in my life. I want to shine a light on my Aunty Patsy Morton, an outstanding artist from the Northern Territory. I proudly call her "Mum" because she is my mother Lucy Gibson's younger sister and the elder sister of my late Aunty Janey Briscoe. With a deep connection to their homeland, Arrungkey, Patsy can be found at Yuelamu. For
