Yarpturk Today

A nice sunny Winter's morning of fifteen degrees
The music from Kathy Baulch's house is floating in the breeze
Across the wide green paddocks of Yarpturk today
How lovely the sound when the tin whistlers play

The magpies are warbling on the sunlit trees
And though no butterflies or bush-flies or bees
In the Moyne Shire we do get some nice days in June of the year
And the weather quite often is sunny and clear

My worth as a rhymer i often do doubt
But in Nature no shortage of things for to write rhymes about
Dainty black and white birds i know and often hear and see
The magpie larks of Yarpturk are singing pee wee

Sometimes i feel that music has invisible wings to fly
On this sunny June morning across the sky
The music from Kathy Baulch's house is floating in the breeze
Where the magpies are warbling on the sunlit trees.
