Power

Photo of Rangitoto island and the Auckland landscape, as seen from One Tree Hill.

Volcanic island
powerfully destructive
drop in the ocean

Chariots

Photo of a sign board on the base of the One Tree Hill. The sign reads, “No buses beyond this point.”

Huffing I walk up;
no chariots to heaven
or volcanic hills.

Brave

photo of a tall deciduous tree, with most of its leaves on the ground below it and a few clinging on to the branches

Shedding its armour
mighty tree faces winter
brave comes in all shapes

Curveballs

Photo of the Auckland city as seen from the top of One Tree Hill.

Life throws curveballs;
from the top of a mountain,
no problem is big.

Promise

Photo of the Rangitoto island in the distance and a small yacht in front of it, as seen from the shore.

The distant island

promise of greener grasses

voyaging in vain
