Melboune City, Usa
With the beach
In reach
Reading the tourist billboards on the Interstate
With a friendly mate
Coming from the north
For what it’s worth
Following the enchanting moon
That will soon
Hear the sound of breaking surf
On the small city turf
Near the river
Melbourne USA is known for a nice place to have dinner
Only a few miles from the ships
Where Caribbean ports are its trips
Cruising the water
Touching the sands of Florida
Neighboring rockets shoot into the air
Destined for the heavens and the International galactic station we share
Military flights patrol the friendly skies
To the amazement to the shore worshippers giving sunbathing a try
As for the hooks and bait
What a catch one could make
Casting a reel with the hope to bring back an appetizing meal
If there is noise like thunder
There could be a wonder
About Andretti’s racing cars
That has miniature golf where it’s fun to make par
Or one could travel east
For a different amusement tease
Studios like Disney and Universal
Call For a rehearsal
Giving life to shows that everyone knows
Sea World is a place to swim
With dolphins who make the day a win
It is no blunder
Melbourne USA is not down under
Instead it’s on a coast known for its space
That puts a smile on everyone’s face
