No Tapu Te Ranga Ahau | Milla Fogarty, Lucian Wilson Kirby, and George Symon

As I look around the bay I see
hills going up and down,
planes and helicopters flying through the sky,
a bush like a beard died green,
plants coming out like hands,
an old rock as dusty as Mars.

The sun is like a starfish.
Ants are living in mini houses.

I feel
wind freezing like a snow bed
and I touch
toitoi like bunny tails
and I hear
cars zooming past like waves washing up on the beach.

Flowers smell like honey.

I picked up a leaf like a Japanese fan
and the leaf was as old as your grandma and grandad.
