Kid

Photo of a group of goats standing atop a mountain, feasting on tree saplings on the mountain.

Kids on a mountain,
snapping tree saplings in half;
mischievous is youth.

Windsurfer

Photo of a windsurfer with Rangitoto Island in the background.

Catching gentle winds
says hello to seagull friends
expert windsurfer.

River

From up in the sky
like the limbs of the lazy,
stretches our river.

Mountains

Photo of a mountain range in the distance and lush green fields in the foreground.

Untouched villages;
hopeful scenes in the distance—
those pale blue mountains.

Peace

Photo of a dog sleeping beside a human’s leg with a laptop partly visible on the photo.

Totally stress free;
knows there’s food after his nap—
peace in a dog’s eyes.
