Millicent

Is such a Beautiful name
Reminiscent
Of Perfume
Majesty
Stature
Strong
And yet Sweet
How I wish I
Had a name
Like Sweet
Millicent

Butterflies and Bowties

The Match Stick Flower

The Match Stick Flower is actually a Bromeliad. Does anyone know what it is called?

Kereru
Sweet Kereru
I remember having
Lunch with You
You sat above me
In the Nikau Palm
And Cooed
Occasionally
A moment
Treasured
With Sweet Sweet
Kereru

"Cheep Cheep"
Or is it "Cheet Cheet"
Says little Piwakawaka
Or Fantail
Chatter merrily
As they hunt for insects
They have no fear
Of Humans
Or so it appears
God Bless
This little bird
As they dance
And Parade
Beneath the Sun
