Batten down the hatches
Close all windows; doors
a huge storm is coming
Watch as the rain pours
Hear the winds a howling
Feel winter's icy embrace
The storm front approaches
Cover up your ears; your face
Check your ropes are sturdy
Ensure your boat's well moored
Battering our southern shores
Farmers bring your lambs in
Take care of your precious stock
Snow falls upon the mountains
Rivers flood their swollen banks
Farmer's crops will bear the brunt
As precious rain fills dams; tanks
Gather together your families
Keep your little children safe
Don't wait till the storm is upon you
By then it will be way too late...
