Magic of Nature

The dust of the deserts,
the dry air, the dry heat
a dust storm approaches
as we run like cockroaches.

The scene is golden
no green in sight,
some might call this a delight.
our farmers in a drought,
but they work, no less,
without a plenty of food
YES, we stress.

We sit on the couch
to have a beer,
turn on the news,
there's plenty to hear.
The Murray River
big and brown
surrounded by gumtrees
like a crown.

We camp 
we fish
we ski, 
there is always plenty to see.
We awake to a sunrise
t begin a new day
the decision is yours,
where would you like to be?
