We recognize eucalypts’ fragrance,


kookaburras, emus, and rare nestled koalas…

kangaroos’ graceful leaps beyond.

Despite the devastation of flood and drought,


and dread of bushfire’s smoke,


we know the joy of flowing rivers,


seas’ shimmering aqua and turquoise,
and nature’s ovations –
surf’s thunder upon rock.
With mottos of respect,
let’s work for peaceful outcomes,
and reflect upon a glorious environment.
