Australia

Yellow is the colour of wattle. 

And the bottle brush is red.

I know this because they grow where I was bred.

The oceans are rough and the hills are high. 

That's what you get told in a lullaby. 

Animals that are venomous.

But if you're careful they’re not that dangerous. 

Orange dusty bushland.

But no matter where you are, it's a wonderland.

Country towns of plenty.

And thrift shops are many.

Australia is a place like no other.

With its hot summer weather.

And a cool winter breeze.

Australia means everything to me.
