Going By The Weather Forecast

Going by the weather forecast of today
A cold and a wet weekend is on the way
A low of a very chilly three degrees
That is just above the point of freeze
Cold wintery showers and the cold winds blow
'Tis cold enough even for to snow
The river bank high in flood waters of brown
Is flowing at a snail's pace to the sea by the coastal town
Though soon the nesting magpies in the night will sing
And every day one day nearer to the Spring
July in mid Winter the coldest and wettest time of year
Though the balmy weather of Spring is drawing near
And soon the magpies will sing through the late Winter night
Their pleasant music echoing in the moonlight.
