Heart of Sand.....

There was a terrific storm last night...

Lightning..thunder.....rain falling in torrrents.. the whole passionate wild lot!!

Went down to pack my car for a trip and found this...

er.... sculpture on the bonnet!!

I forgot about it and wondered why everyone was looking at us, until we got over the Rai Saddle and it suddenly flew away....

Awwwwwwwwww.......!!!

Worlds Biggest Kiwi...!!

We visited a friend of a friend today, and met this giant Kiwi!!!

Amazing......

I just love folk who do crazy things like this ;o)

The top photo is some of the framework inside this concrete creation...

City Lights....

oh cold city lights
bring back the ragged poets
to shine among stars

Survival

rusted metal shell.....
holds its desolate beauty
still...

like the footprints
of long lost
lovers....

hear their soft echo....

like the
fragile
bittersweetness
of a
freshly broken
heart.....

hear
its
anguished
wail
in the cry
of the gulls..

as they dive
and swoop...


they
cry to me....
that
it's
only

survival

Bittersweet....

sunrise over hill
casts it's early light and warmth
to those most distant

meanwhile the hill waits
in cold dark shadow until
enlightenment comes
