Flowers are in bloom

A flower, pink and maroon, slowly starting in its bloom
A singing black cockatoo with an elegant plume
A delight it is to be in spring
The Regent Honeyeater elegantly soaring wing to wing
The rain is trickling down the numbats’ fur softly
The petals of gentle flowers are very lofty
The beautiful country shines of every colour
Forget me not blue
The sunflowers’ yellow hue
Every matchstick banksia was blanketed in dew
The Corroboree Frogs on the leaves gleamed lightly
Every joyous child is smiling brightly
The flowers’ petals are open to the sun,
In all its glory, it's proudly ablaze
Looking at the country, the mist that is enveloping numbats, casts a haze
The bilbies are clambering through the grass while deer are frolicking with their fawn
Now the surging prussian blue river serenes at dawn
