Dance

Photo of ceiling lights, made up of little green lights.

A dance of shadows:
emeralds in the ceiling
lighting up the room.

Bridge

Photo of a little concrete path built a little way into the beach, with Rangitoto Island visible in the distance.

Though we build bridges
often we fall a bit short—
in concrete and life.

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.

Uprising

photo of white clouds under a plane's wing, as seen from the window of the plane

Turbulent journey;
backbone of the uprising:
a billowing cloud.

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.
