It Had Rained Overnight

It had rained overnight this morning the sky overcast and gray
But the sun is out and shining in Koroit today
The paddocks around the old town looking bare brown and dry
And just a few gray clouds in the blue and sunny sky
The wetlands and lake in Tower Hill drying out from months of wind and sunshine
And after the overnight rain the long term weather forecast is for warm and fine
The creeks are drying out and bone dry every drain
Koroit like all of south west Victoria is in need of more rain
Climate Change and Global Warming that are Worldwide
Are so evident in the coastal Moyne Shire countryside
For many weeks in the countryside ravaged by drought
El Nino the thirsty one has been about
The overnight rain was a blessing indeed
But of more of the same the Moyne Shire is badly in need.
