The Pride Of Southren Cross Poem by Francis Duggan

For words to describe her i feel at a loss
Tall graceful and beautiful The Pride of Southern Cross
Of shoulder length wavy brown hair and immaculately dressed
Surely one of the finest in Victoria's South West
With a wonderful smile and beautiful eyes of brown
She is the pin up girl of Warrnambool Town
Many local unmarried young men would like to have her as a wife
But she is determined to travel and see more of life
In the big World out there where there is so much to see
For one of nineteen unattached and carefree
Unaffected by conceit she is one without guile
And charming in her ways with a wonderful smile
Of singing her praises could one ever tire
The Pride of Southern Cross and the Rose of Moyne Shire.
