A Warm Day

The day it is warm over thirty degrees And warmth in the sunshine and warmth in the breeze That blow from the sea above paddocks dry, bare and brown Between Warrnambool City and Koroit Town The warm air full of the buzzing of bush flies and bees And cattle sheltering from the sun in the shade of the trees Yesterday was wet andcool the weather acting strange Perhaps these are the symptons of climate change White butterflies make for a beautiful sight Flitting about in the warm sunlight A few days to breed they won't outlive the flowers That go to decay in the cool Autumn showers With the sun on their dark wings chirping as they fly Welcome swallows chase flying insects across the sunny sky.
