Makes me feel connected

I see budjan (birds) flying over
I smell eucalyptus leaves falling
I hear the wildlife chirping and calling
I feel the land on my feet
I see the land sitting peacefully
I smell the fresh air on a perfect day
I hear the busy roads
I feel the soft fresh wattle -
makes me feel connected.
Hearing the gurragang (magpie) and burru (kangaroo) scurry
When I am playing on that field
it makes me feel connected, from the
Bunyal (sun) beaming on me to the
Gundu (trees) bringing shade
This is my home the Gundungurra land
I can call my own.
