An August Evening In Illowa

 An August evening in Illowa between Koroit and Warrnambool
The weather sunless and calm and on the side of cool
But on the last day of August the nesting birds sing
Tomorrow the first of September is the start of the calendar Spring
Soon the weather temperature will rise by many degrees
And there will be pink blossoms on the fruit bearing trees
Wildflowers in bloom and white butterflies in numbers to be seen
And after the recent August rain the paddocks looking green
In the coastal Moyne Shire such a nice time of year
The voices of Nature's creatures so pleasant to hear
Young lambs and calves in the paddocks around their mothers play
Though the sun not at it's warmest and the sky often grey
In Illowa the weather is cool on Winter's last day
And the calendar Spring is only hours away.
