MALLACOOTA
Ted Harrington

Mallacoota Bar
Henry Lawson, 1910
- Curve of beaches like a horse-shoe, with a glimpse of grazing stock,
- To the left the Gabo Lighthouse, to the right the Bastion Rock;
- Upper Lake where no one dwelleth — scenery like Italy,
- Lower Lake of seven islets and six houses near the sea;
- ‘Twixt the lake and sea a sandbank, where the shifting channels are,
And a break where white-capped rollers bow to Mallacoota Bar.
