THE DRY

When was the last time you seen it this dry?
Buggered if I know. I can’t remember, why?
Ya reckon its gonna, pour down rain soon?
Gawd, I hope so, by the end of June!
If we don’t get some wet, we’ll be up the creek!
Yea, I know. Wish it would rain for a week!
The creeks are all dry can’t even wet a line!
Easier to catch a fish, just jump in, grab 'em and fry 'em!
Me ewes are all lambing not a blade of grass around!
I got the same problem with calves on the ground.
Have you seen the big gums dying? Up on the mountain range!
Yea I was up there the other day, I thought that a bit strange!
It’s a funny place we live in, this wide Australian land.
Yea, I just hope it doesn’t turn into, a bloody big desert with sand!
