Melbourne Spring
Melbourne is coming out of a winter
And spreading its wings into a spring
The black branches that spoke of the reasons why
Are now growing bits of fresh and green
And the coldness and sharp of the air
Is now growing softer and warmer
But, I miss the winter already
I don’t mind the cold and grey and rain
Those dark moods and whispers of death
In the sky, air and tree
Making me more aware of who I am
Of life, of death, of dreams
Making me understand that this life
Is higher than what it seems
Of the spirit that moves in the air and wind
Of something beyond my flesh and reasoning
And the moon in the winter night sky
Spoke of many things in my life
And she still does with love in her eyes
That swim and dance in the night sky
Showing me her colours and sides
And her different moods and moves
I love to dance with her heavenly body
And swim in the rays of her moonlight
She is a very special part of me
A special part of me is the moon
And so the winter has come and gone
And Melbourne now has a new song
The same song with a different air
That smells of colour and life.
