Not Even A Paper Aussie

Though I've lived in this marvellous Country for many a Season and year I'm not even a paper Aussie I would like to make that clear I was born and raised in Claraghatlea near Millstreet Town far from this Southern Shore Within view of Clara Mountain overlooking Claramore. Yet I love this Land Australia more than with words I can hope to say Some of it's amazing Wildlife I get to see every day Monoterenes, marsupials, and megapodes that in this great Land are only seen The home of amazing birdlife that looks more brown than green. At most I could only be a paper Aussie of that why should I lie But the thoroughbred Australian is of a darker shade than you or I Suppose we are what we think we are that's how it appears to be And I am just a migrant that's how it does seem to me. I do love this Land Australia in a non patriotic way Some of it's amazing flora and fauna I do see every day In this marvellous Southern Country of sunshine, storm, fire and drought For one who likes to write just for the love of it so much to write about.
