My Selfie Poem

             MY SELFIE POEM

I am from a black coach, from a swaying hammock and dripping wet wet suits.

I am from the dark green bush, from the roaring motors.

I am from the slimy lake weed, from the Cobden Netball team.

The Bristly Rimu.

I am from the sounds of birds chirping, from Bains Bay.

I’m from riding motorbikes and white baiting, from a snorting dog and a
sporty brother.

I’m from being late and late nights and from is dinner ready and where’s Milly.

I’m from eat your breakfast and get to bed, from the pages of Pony Club
Secrets, and We Will Rock you.

I am from water skiing and slalom skiing.

I am from boating on lake Brunner.

I’m from Greymouth and, New Zealand. From sausage casserole and
Ice-cream, from great great granddad Dusty.

From a well known painter.

War medals safely hidden at my grandparents.

Hermit Poem

Hermits

The itch from my unshaved beard

 As I read my book in boredom

    sand pouring down as hours go by

    wind howls and the chill creeps through

Deep, deep in the dark dark cave lurks a hermit

Limited accessories he sits and waits  

He hides away in his shell and eats of what he has   

Orcas And Me Poem

                                                      Orcas And Me

When I splash the clear mirror-like water

I can see black shadows in the deep blue sea

Sun is setting

we lie down for a good sleep in soft golden sand,

we all lie down with blankets and sleeping bags to keep us warm through
the cold wintery night

I wake up

waves crashing against the floor of the shore

orcas and me lets

go swimming

in the deep blue sea

This is a picture that I drew with pastel

Sometimes when you look out to sea you might just see a girl and a
Orca swimming in the deep blue sea.
