Music of the Animals

The rare Par blue parakeet flies in the sky 

The koalas sleep and snore high in the trees

Kangaroos wait their turn to cross the street

Wombats nestle themselves far into their burrows 

The Tasmanian devil rips up the food they’re about to eat

The saltwater crocodile hisses at birds flying by

The Australian southern cassowary storks insects

The short nosed echidna licks the floor looking for food

Kookaburras laugh at other animals walking by

A numbat sprints back to its home in the hollow logs

The thorny devil lays down hiding from predators

The platypus races up and down the river bank

The land is full of music from the animals
