Mid July In The Moyne Shire

In the coastal Moyne Shire between Koroit and Warrnambool
The day it is windy and showery and cool
Of the black and white birds who sing every day of the year
The warbling of the magpies is so pleasant to hear

About six weeks from September and the calendar Spring
How nice to hear at dawn the male blackbirds sing
Quite soon there will be blossoms on the fruit bearing trees
And the weather will grow warmer by many degrees

In what is typical weather for the southern July
The air is quite cool though the sun shines in the sky
Though mid Winter from Spring in time not far away
And growing a bit closer with every new day

And so very pleasant a thing for to see
A pair of little ravens collecting twigs for their nest high on a nearby tree
Every day of Nature we learn something new
Her wonders are many and her secrets not few

Mid July in the Moyne Shire a cool chill in the breeze
And the day it is cool with a weather temperature high of thirteen degrees
And the blackbirds in the grey dawn so pleasant to hear
Does give one the feeling that Spring must be near.
