An April Day

The first of the calendar Winter just six weeks away
Yet for the middle of April quite a sultry day
The deciduous trees turning yellow and brown
And losing their leaves in the park of the town
The flutes of the magpies so pleasant to hear
In weather quite warm for the time of year
Weather-wise this year it has been quite a mild and dry Fall
And so little rain in fact not much at all
A weather temperature high for the day of twenty four degrees
And the warm air full of the buzzing of bush flies and bees
In the bare and dry paddocks the farmers feeding their cattle hay
In Climate Change few farmers can make farming pay
White butterflies seemingly dancing in the gentle breeze
And leaves silently fall from the deciduous trees.
