Perched upon a gum tree high,  

Kookaburra scans the sky.  

Feathers gleam in morning light,  

Eyes alert and sharp, so bright.  

With a chuckle, loud and clear,  

Echoing for all to hear,  

Jungle drum or woodland chime?  

Nature’s clock that laughs the time!  

Through the bush, its call rings free,  

Guardian of the old gum tree.  

Mirthful bird, so wild, so wise,  

Laughter dancing in the skies.
