Made Of More poem

the cloud came from the sea

He wasn't the same as all the rest

Maybe He was a cloud, a cloud 

Made of more 

The Inangahua earthquake

I saw her and then she was gone, I heard her whispering for me to follow. It only took a few seconds for me to decide...

As I  follow the cold, wet stream the mist lays at my feet like a blanket. I see the stream reflecting the trees and flowers when... I hear movements splashing the the stream and a voice echoing "follow me!"
