An April Day Near Koroit Town

The countryside looks green around Koroit Town
A few weeks ago the paddocks were dry and brown
Though the creeks down to a trickle and bone dry every drain
And Koroit and surrounds could do with a lot more rain
The first of the calendar Winter just five weeks away
And the farmers for weeks have been feeding their cattle hay
The weather of late has been acting strange
But then we are in the age of Climate Change
The long range weather forecast has it cool and dry
For the remainder of April and May, June and July
With grass rather scarce and hay for their cattle for to buy dear
For the farmers it is not a profitable year
The countryside around Koroit looking green but scarce enough grass for to fatten a hare
And financially the farmers are suffering their own share.
