The Pride Of Yarpturk Poem by Francis Duggan

Her sort the inspiration of the writers of song, story and rhyme
The pride of Yarpturk in her physical prime
One of the finest in the coastal Moyne Shire countryside
Where stories of her beauty have travelled far and wide
The young men stare at her in admiration as she walks up and down
The sidewalks of Commercial Road in Koroit Town
Wavy dark hair to her shoulders and eyes of brown
Of the female beauties of Koroit she deserves the crown
The Pride of Yarpturk she is graceful and tall
And nothing conceited about her at all
Of the great beauty she possesses she does not seem aware
To meet so down to earth and friendly her sort does seem rare
In her early twenties with time on her side
One of the Moyne Shire's finest and old Yarpturk's pride.
