Mt Napier

It was from a great artist Mt Napier got it's name But thousands of centuries before him great rivers of flame Flowed down it's brown face leaving rocks here and there For miles around in the flat countryside everywhere Australia's first people must have looked on in awe In fear and amazement at the wonder they saw They must have felt their gods were angry with them for displaying such ire To see the hills coughing up rivers of fire The long dormant volcanic hills of the Southern Grampians Shire Poets, storytellers and artists never cease to inspire To South West Victoria the Seasons have come and the Seasons have gone But the legends of Mt Eccles, Mt Rouse and Mt Napier live on Today volcanic stones and rocks from past volcanic eruptions in numbers abound From the hill of Mt Napier for many miles around.
