Matariki Poem ~ by Erina


7 Stars,
Dark clouds flowing by
the new moon beaming brightly,
Family and friends surrounding me


Smoke from fires lit,
smoked hangi,
moist  and damp


Happiness,
pride in my culture,
peace  and Love
respectful of matariki tradition


Salty and sweet,
creamy smoked air,
steam and tuna,
tasty dinner,
drink so juicy.


Beautiful singing,
wild wind,
7 sisters,
storms passing by,
tapping magic shoes.

  7. Kia ora Erina
    The adjectives you used in your poem created a strong sense of the atmosphere of your Matariki. Good on you.
