Koroit Truck Show Day Poem by Francis Duggan

The afternoon warm close to thirty degrees
And little relief from the heat in the timid breeze
In Victoria Park in Koroit Town today
Where all sizes and all sorts of trucks are on display
Not built to be environmentally friendly of them one can say
But for industrial progress there is some price to pay
On the last Saturday in January on weather sunny and dry
With only a few gray clouds in the mostly blue sky
Victoria Park is full of trucks and people from places far and near
On what is for Koroit Town a big day of the year
In Victoria Park the truck fans in large numbers to see
Brand new trucks on display that when in operation are anything but pollution free
But the owners and makers and admirers of big trucks do not see themselves as environmental foes
As is said it does take all kinds one does have to suppose.
