That Nature Can Be Changeable

The sun behind gray clouds is hidden away
On what is a drizzly and blustery day
The wind soughing in the gum and wattle trees
On a temperature high for the day of a cool eighteen degrees
Birds familiar to many and familiar to me
The magpie larks in the paddocks are calling pee wee
And the magpies are warbling in the wind and the rain
Why birds sing in changeable weather as a mystery remain
The weather does change quite quickly at this time of year
Yesterday it was warm and sunny and the sky of rain clouds was clear
But all day it has been drizzling and a strong wind blowing from the south
This is not good weather for to be out and about
That Nature can be changeable it does seem fair to say
She does not seem to be in a good mood today.
