The Escarpment

The Escarpment’s known to most
Some call it foggy mountain
Or a giant boat
In southeast NSW
As old as time can see
Sometimes I wonder
How this landmark is to be
It provides us with oxygen and creativity
It started 30 million years ago
When one tree dropped a seed
It’s now 120km long
Right by the sea
I see it from my classroom window
And bedroom too
Were provided with eucalyptus
And honeydew
Shelter to wildlife
But there’s no bamboo
We have Acacia Binervia
I want to protect it, how about you?
