Australia as I know it is bundles of fun
Reefs and mountains and all year shining sun
Australia as I know it has deserts of red
Opal hearted rocks lay on the desert bed

Australia as I know it has forests of green
All the animals add to the pretty scene
Australia as I know it has oceans of blue
Bright coral covers the floor of a few

Australia as I know it has soldiers who fight
Even if it means they're losing they're life
To keep everyone happy and burden free

Australia is a very unique place
And it will put a smile on your face.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
