Woodford Poem by Francis Duggan

So much beauty in Nature there is to be seen
The hills around Woodford are looking quite green
On a pleasant November evening of around twenty degrees
The song of the blackbird is carrying in the breeze

That blow through the village up the higher ground
In peaceful old Woodford Nature's beauty abound
The sun it is hidden behind clouds of gray
And going by the sky rain is not far away

But Nature looks great in the sunshine after Spring showers
In her green cloak resplendent in her wildering flowers
And so much in Nature to love and admire
Of singing her praises one never could tire

Today Woodford a gem in the crown of Victoria's south west
In her greenery of Spring at her beautiful best
The song of the blackbird so pleasant to hear
Utopia to this place would have to be near.
