The Moyne Shire In May

Over twenty degrees in the Moyne Shire today
The weather quite warm for late Autumn and May
The magpies are singing on the sunlit trees
Their flute like music is carrying in the freshening breeze
Yesterday cool, wet and windy the weather is acting strange
Suppose these are the environmental symptoms of Climate Change
And though the coastal countryside greener after the recent rain
The dams low in water and no water in any drain
No shortage of natural beauty in the Moyne countryside
To visit the coastal towns every year people come from places far and wide
Around Warrnambool, Koroit and Port Fairy Town
Up to a few weeks ago the paddocks looked bare and brown
Yesterday wet and windy and today warm and dry
And the sun shining bright in a mostly blue sky.
