Lucky Kids

Learning Waltzing Matilda, I instantly knew Australia was the place for me I'd live like a swagman with my pet kangaroo and play under the shade of a Coolibah tree It was Christmas there in the summer—Cool! So, I'd greet Santa surfing into the bay and kids never had to go to school I'd just swim and play baseball all day! What am I doing here at seven? when lucky kids live in an Australian heaven? 1/23/22

I like this one, Robert, very much. It exactly reflects how a seven-year-old thinks!
