tree ferns, open armed
shrouded in thick mistiness rolling in
from the South Pacific
bejeweled spider-web mandala
(bemused spider sheltering under
dripping eaves)
breadcrumbs scattered on glistening deck;
shy thrushes dropping in for breakfast
gleaming flax proudly pointing their ebony flower-laden bracts
skyward; fat Tuis feasting
explosions of agapanthus blue, and white,
on long strong stalks
panels of pieces-in-progress strewn
around the polished Rimu floor
tongues of fire dancing in the little wood stove
keeping the air moisture-free
so paintings can dry
crackle and creak of chimney stack
slow staccato on roof-tile
melting diamonds on window-pane
oboe breathing forth from
magic music box …
what else can I say?
there is nothing that I is not
yet I is nothing and nowhere to be found
