PAPATUANUKU World on her back

PAPATUANUKU
 World on her back
L.A. Mahi 2010
the birds they call from beneath the earth
we return to Papa from where we birth
the snakes have passed me on the track
they swam the ocean upon my back
the turtle slowly moves to the north
to the cape we finally journey forth
the clouds are dividing their holding rain
to shed the tears and ease the pain
the seed that lays dormant with peace
wait for the rain for their release
the cycle of life continues this day
kia kaha whanau...tis the way

L.A.Maihi
