Australia and England

Many plains to share
Land for all to see
Dry tough mountain ranges
Droughts to flooding rains
The land is filled with opals
A jewel-hearted sea for me
Barbecues burning bright every night
Tomato sauce swarming tables filled of flight
Zinc cream on the cricket ball
Sixes weaving round the year
Fields work to patch a shirt
Riversides fill with dirt
Silky turf covered mountains
Hill peaks lunging ever higher
Football plays through wild nights
Mossy cheers linger on
Grizzled times grow on tables
Sturdy houses warm through drizzles
Ice builds as sleds skate further
