Shirley Duffield

In many ways a generous person and she can be caring and kind
A woman who is known to many and one not afraid to speak her mind
Shirley may be an octogenarian but she does look well for her years
A woman who lives in the present and for the past she has no tears
One known to many in the Moyne Shire as a leading environmentalist her fame has grown
That she is a true friend of Nature is something that is widely known
She wage war on every human introduced feral and wild-born predator and on every invasive weed
Of many more people like Shirley our earth Mother she is in need
To speak on behalf of our Earth Mother on her one can surely depend
On the amazing Shirley Duffield Nature does have a true friend
To the cause she believes in and espouses she does remain steadfastly true
In her Nature does have a great friend and this is to give her fair due
Quite amazing for an octogenarian the flag of Nature she carries with pride
That she is one born of courage of her cannot be denied.
