The Pelican's Mantra

Broad, strong wings

Feathers of an angel

The Pelican flies

It flies, it sings, it swooshes and eats

Everything a good bird can be

The Pelican dives

Flying through the damp, wetland swamp

Air whistling through its ears

SWOOSH it dives

At just the right time

The Pelican cries

It flies, it sings, it swooshes, it eats

The Pelican

A marvel of Australian things
