Beautiful Australia

A lone wattle swaying free
tetherless in the breeze
Just one plant that is native to this land
Among others that are ever so grand
Kangaroos hop jump and skip around
While wombats burrow in the ground
A beautiful country surrounded by water
Named Australia by an English explorer
A tropical climate influences the weather
Drought or floods Aussies stick together
A country compared to others is ever so free
Due to parliament being a democracy
Koalas, platypus and dingoes
G'day mate, crikey the aussie lingo
Accepting of others no matter the culture
As Indians lead blueberry agriculture
Australia has deserts, forests and beaches
Educational facilities full of teachers
A safe country where you can be free
A beautiful country for you and me
