Koala Gardens 2025 Wild Koala Day Poetry Competition
There was once a beautiful tree melon
Who grew up without a mother
But some Friends helped her out
And gave her another
Chance to live wild it’s true
She’s a gorgeous koala
And her name is Honeydew
Once she was sick
But then she was cured
With the help of human friends
Her health is assured
Now she’s free to live, jump, and play
Eat tons of leaf
And sleep all day
She’s growing up strong
With hope in her eyes
We can see her thriving
And we aren’t surprised
An amazing koala girl
With a future so bright
Her cute fluffy ears
Fills our lives with light
She has a new home
Where we can see her today
Where there are trees galore
It’s Koala Gardens to stay
Never to worry about trees or leaf
Fast moving machines
Or barking creatures with teeth
She’ll always have a home there
To live as she bids
To stay as long she likes
Or maybe raise some kids
Do as you like, Honeydew
We’ll be watching to see
You living so well
Totally wild and free
