Blue Mountains Gully

Yellow crops of sandstone, Jagged mountain peak, Red display of waratahs, A meandering bush creek. White display of flannel flowers, Bottlebrush with orange cones, Beautiful fronds of tree ferns, Blue gums with crafted tones. A frolicking roll of mountain mist, An ancient windswept cave, Green moss upon the velvet rocks, Falling gum leaf gives a wave. The tinkling sounds of bellbirds Run echoes round the stream, A yellow-tailed cockatoo Circles back to where it's been. The buzzing of a bush-bee Comes from near a fallen log, A croaking sound pervading It's a golden striped tree frog. This bush display persistent, Wallaby nibbles grass nearby, A lyrebird shyly into view, Kookaburras sit in branches high. The melodic sounds continue, Chirping birds with colored plume, Gorge of coolness calling, Mountain gully, nature's loom. kidscomedypoetry.com.au
