The grass squeaks
beneath my feets
Cold steals well into
my bones
Chilly cows in
frosty fields
complain in
mooing moans
The sun is
shining watery bright
glistening drips from
my watery nose
In the shade
of the rock garden
lies a frosty
useless hose
The dogs’ little
paws
hardly leave
a mark
It’s beautiful but
not my favourite time
I have Summer
in my heart

I like this. It’s a completely different style from Robert Frost but makes me think of him just the same.

P.s. Which area of the North? Up high near the beaches? Auckland area? You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to :p. I spent some time in Auckland, Paihia, Raglan, Taupo, Rotorua (the stink pit). Picked apples in Hastings. Wellington is a great city π
I tried hard to be an extra in lord of the rings but unfortunately, to no avail.
I’ve also heard it’s illegal to garden in New Zealand is that true? There was a meme of an old woman with a ski mask taking pictures with her avocado tree for a while. Heheh….
Oh and flight of conchords and Rhys darby are so my jam, Hahah… Fun country.

Oh that’s such a crack up! Not allowed to garden?? I’ve never heard of that! If you mean growing weed…well, that is still illegal but all sorts happening to change marijuana laws. π I live in a rural place on the west coast, near Dargaville, called Te Kopuru. I love it, very filling for the soul. Oh yes, love the Conchords too. Kiwis are pretty good at laughing at themselves most of the time!π

Hahah! I’m Canadian! OF course I should ski.
However – I do not!
Funny story. I actually learned to ski in Tasmania. I lived in Australia for a year and a half after New Zealand. Worked as a lift attendant for a few months in Tas. Whodda thunk it?

The animals were actually my favorite part of Australia. Oh, and the living wage is pretty impressive as well. It’s just expensive to boot.

Beautiful little poem, it told the beauty of both winter and summer. Every line praised winter but also how summer is warm and different from winter. Loved it β€
