Annie, my love, my heart’s desire,
This jackpot I won is to be spent on you, my sweet fire.
We’ll travel far and wide, to lands so bright,
And together we’ll explore, the wonders of Australia’s light.
We’ll see the Sydney Opera House, in all its grandeur and might,
And stroll across the Harbour Bridge, on a sunny day so bright.
We’ll visit the Great Barrier Reef, and snorkel in its crystal sea,
And watch the sunset over Uluru, in a sight we’ll always see.
But most of all, my love, we’ll experience the vibrant scene,
Of Melbourne’s cultural wonderland, where art and music are supreme.
We’ll stroll through the streets of Fitzroy, and see the street art so fine,
And visit the National Gallery, where masterpieces are on display in line.
We’ll hear the music of the buskers, in the streets so alive,
And taste the flavors of the city, in a culinary journey we’ll thrive.
We’ll see the theater and dance performances, that Melbourne has to offer,
And feel the energy of the city, in a way that will make our hearts flutter.
Annie, my love, this jackpot is for you,
To show you the world, and all its beauty anew.
We’ll spend it on adventures, on experiences so grand,
And make memories that will last, in this land so vast and so bland.
So let us travel, to this land so bright,
And see the wonders of Australia, in all its delight.
Let us experience, the cultural scene of Melbourne,
And know that our love is strong, in this adventure we’ve undertaken.
