Our lovely Aussie icon
The cuddly Koala Bear
Is sometimes hard to spot
High up in the air
Their habitat is shrinking
As we timber fell their trees
And bushfires ravage homeland
Igniting tinder dry gum leaves
Let’s take care of our sleepy friend
So we can entertain the tourists
With drop bear tales, Caramellos
And natural sightings in the forests
Poem inspired by June picture prompt from artwork by Melissa Varoy
People gathered in the hall
The chatter loudly soaring
Cuppas, biscuits, busy hands
It must be Craft Group morning.

With bushfires on the horizon we need to move the stock
The family mounted ready, to drive them near the house block
They are our prized and loved possessions, and represent our life
Let’s pray the winds don’t change and cause us any strife.
