Harvey and Gillian Ansell we should celebrate
In 1977 they donated their Pirianda Garden to the Victoria State
Where trees are in plenty wild creatures do live
What a great gift to Nature the Ansells did give.
Pirianda a word that means sufficent is an Aboriginal name
As a place of rare beauty it's great claim to fame
For Harvey and Gillian 'twas their dream come true
Honour to them and to their kind is due.
So much about trees the Ansells did know
In steep Pirianda Garden trees of all Nations grow
They brought seedlings with them from Lands far away
The crowning glory of Olinda today.
This rhyme to Harvey and Gillian I do dedicate
Their gift to Nature it surely is great
In Pirianda Garden in the freshening breeze
Birds chirp and whistle on the beautiful trees.
