Eucalyptus Grove, morning
Quiet Eucalyptus Grove
In the shallows
Of the cove
Root and trunk and branches wove
‘Mid a muddy treasure trove.
Well - appointed campus lake;
Wealthy waters, rich to slake
Duck and egret, fish and snake.
Silent Eucalyptus brake!
Peaceful while thy land was French
Peaceful while I manned my bench
Content ye graze and ever quench
Content we gaze and never flinch.
