Today's Kookaburra News!

Viewed from Down Under, news is skewed;

Here ScoMo’s* in election mood

 In trademark blue tie, tarmac greet

His Sydney-Canberra trip is sweet.

 

Though locals clamour for a date

The P.M. will not speculate;

In other news: persistent rains

Engulf Sydney, flooding plains…

 

Formula One now picks up pace

 As Melbourne gears up for “The Race”;

Matildas, not the Walzing kind,

Prove women’s sports not left behind!

 

Blown-up ammunition dump,

With other foreign news is clumped

Sri Lanka’s riots briefly viewed;

Lahore votes for a change of dude!**

 

Outside - the sunshine lights my day

Against blue skies, where breezes play

As a different sort of syncopation

Stirs and regulates this Nation!
