It Has Been More Than Six Years

It has been more than six weeks and in that many a day and week
Since i drove  on the high road through the hills of Archies Creek
On a nice day in November towards the end of the Spring
The swallows chasing flying insects above the high fields did chirp and sing
From the  Loch-Wonthaggi road  the scenery breathtaking to the Pacific shore
A beauty that is timeless that will live forever more
Of the high road from Loch to Wonthaggi the memories with me remain
And often in my flights of fancy i drive on it again
The marvelloous gift of memory it is an amazing thing
Above the hills of Archies Creek i can hear the bushlark sing
When the cattle quite contented sit chewing their cuds by the trees
On a mild evening in November with a freshening mountain breeze
On the  roadway that leads to Archies Creek i may never drive again
But fond memories of such beauty my lifetime with me will remain
