Extremely Warm Today

In most parts of Australia it is extremely warm today
All weather temperatures have been broken weather historians do say
In all States the weather temperatures are over forty degrees
And in many places the smoke and smell of bushfires is carrying in the breeze

In these times of Global Warming the weather acting strange
Tomorrow in some places there will be a cool change
The fire Season has started so very early this year
That Climate Change is upon us is obviously clear

For our abuse of our Earth Mother this is the price we must pay
In more natural disasters occuring every day
In a time of major bush fires and flooding and drought
Nature is very angry in this great Land of the south

On this twentieth day of December of the year twenty nineteen
So many places from fires have been blackened that up to lately were green
So many birds and animals have died and homes and human lives lost
Our abuse of our Earth Mother has come to us at a cost.
