trout

Sitting in front of the Karetu Marae

Ngati Manu's flag hugs the staff.
Ping pong in the dining hall.

The sun spills light over the hills across
the creek. A horse flicks its tail.

The door to Grandad's house is shut.
Ten goats nuzzle on a higher hill.

A dog rolls in front belly up.
This day fills us: slow breeze in a cloth.
