Wonder-Shop

This image is not so revealing…wonders often aren’t….but if you could look closely you would see the words at the bottom of this wonder-shop window read ‘Purveyors of Language, Arts and Other Wonders‘. Now that’s the style of shop I like to buy my groceries at.

Wonderful Wanderlust

Agent Patapata here introducing myself as a collector of Wanderlust i.e., the poetic pieces found whilst wandering worlds….because there are a few out there….poetic pieces and worlds!

To begin, I present you with a heart, shaped by the spinning of a grand planet, the grinding of tiny sand particles and the lyrical lap of a beautiful blue ocean, a wonder indeed!

Sparkling Grass

The purple grass at Whitianga marae site twinkled spectacularly at night under the LEDs of my headlamp.

We arrived at Whitianga on our first night of Slow Flow, on a misty, eerie evening. Later that night I found myself amazed at the shimmer and twinkle of some incredibly water-laden grass, glowing purple under the LEDs of my headlamp. These are the same grasses by daylight.
