A Humid October Day

The sky is a mixture of clouds blue and gray And the sun at intervals shines through on this warm Spring day With a high of a humid thirty one degrees And little relief from the heat in the freshening sea breeze So beautiful to watch the white butterflies From the garden flower beds effortlessly rise They do seem to dance in the warm coastal air of Nature a marvellous surprise Them in their performing their courtship display great beauty to the watchers eyes The dark and grey new holland honeyeater on the flowering bottle brush it's wings fringed with gold No beauty to rival or so it does seem that is in Nature to behold The flute of the magpie melodious and clear the magpie lark pee wee does sing It seems more like a day in the Summer's warm prime than an October Afternoon of the Spring The breeze from the ocean it even feels warm white butterflies dance in the air And a group of teenage boys play football in the park the coastal breeze tossing their hair.
