Public treasure

Rangitoto Island, Auckland

Hiding in plain sight
treasures we already own,
yet forget: mountains.

Investment

Photo of stairs leading up a mountain, with luscious plants on either side.

Climb every mountain,
chase your rainbows, high and low;
strap on sturdy shoes.

Sunny spot

Close up photo of being yellow flowers on Mount Wellington.

Undisturbed flower
in a volcanic crater
where the sun shines bright.

Better than gold

Photo of the boardwalk leading to the summit of Mount Eden in Auckland, New Zealand.
Mount Eden, Auckland

Stairway to heaven:
all that glitters is not gold,
just dew drops on grass.

Island

Rangitoto Ialand

Forming tiny mounds
on shores of Rangitoto—
ocean laps away.
