Kiwi Rock
Kiwi Rock
In the Land Down Under
As the winter gathers
everyone scatters
Each to their own home
The cold is forgotten
as music warms the heart
A mix of aboriginal harmony
and eclectic rhapsody
She dances
Sometimes in purple
spinning, laughing, sharing in a circle
Making the most of everyday
Family cheer and good food
make her a princess of the isle
Maori flutes vibrations
Conch shells echo a trumpet call
to get up and stamp your feet
Her groove steps with the beat
Forever young
Her joy bubbles to the world
This poem was for my special sister who filled the month of May with New Zealand music for us all. My favorite was this post -> https://steemit.com/music/@kiwideb/celebrating-nz-music-throughout-may-26-aldous-harding-lorde-omc-coconut-rough-sisters-underground
This is the second consecutive year @kiwideb has honored New Zealand music month on Steemit and I want to show my appreciation to her for sharing. Please check out @kiwideb's posts for the coolest selection of kiwi music I ever heard. She also took time to curate other kiwi music posts this month from @sift666, @kiwiscanfly, @conradt and @ravenruis.

Verse of the Day/ Psalm 98:8

Aw, that's fabulous! Thank you, and thanks for dropping me the link, or I would have missed it. Sadly, I don't get through my feed every day so miss lots of good stuff. x
I'm glad you caught it. You are my link to the kiwi world and really did enjoy that month.
Stunning pictures and lovely poem! Mirror lake that’s on the way to Milford sound right? In Otago? I miss it so much there... I have just posted about nz and my thoughts about how much I want to return!
A beautiful place I have yet to visit. Most of what I know about New Zealand is from @kiwideb and her sister.
howdy @mineopoly this is a remarkable post: great image, beautiful photos, great poem!
Awesome poem. Thankyou. Also where is the cool Kiwi Rock you have in the photo?
