September North And South

In the home of the kangaroo in the Land of the far south In sky kilometers far from the waterways of the brown trout The sun shines in a sky of blue and gray And the nesting birds are singing in the Moyne Shire today September the first month of the northern Autumn in the fall of the year The Summer is over as Winter draws near Some leaves on the deciduous trees already turning brown And the river bank high in the fields by the town September in the south is the first month of Spring In the gray of the dawn the nesting birds chirp and sing After recent rain the countryside looking green And Nature at her very finest is seen In September it is early Spring in the south in the Land of the kangaroo And the home of the yellow tailed black cockatoo But in September in the north it is Autumn a cool and wet time of year And in the gray of the dawning the songs of the birds one does not hear.
