Waratah Telopea

In the wild embrace of the Australian land,
Where sun and soil in harmony stand,
Blooms a marvel, fierce and bright,
The waratah, a beacon of light.
With petals blazing, fierce and bold,
A fiery dance in crimson and gold,
Its vibrant hues, a summer’s blaze,
In nature’s canvas, it sets the stage.
Through winds that howl and skies that weep,
The waratah its beauty keeps,
A symbol strong, of land and heart,
In Australia’s soul, it plays its part.
