The Australian Seasons

Blessed are the Seasons that come and go
Summer days of rapture on hot burning sand
Blessed is Mother Nature as passions flow
Warmed by the sun pulsating savage land

It is difficult at times for us in the Northern Hemisphere to realise that Australian summer extends from 21 December to 21 March. Good writing and rhyming here.
