Motukiekie Rocks near Greymouth

Here is one of my favourite places in all the world. I used to stay in a house owned by my landlady on the top of the cliffs on the left. Now she has died and the house is sold, so I feel like Eve shut out of Eden. I once wrote a poem here:
Kiekie islands make me smile,
Stay here for a little while,
You'll see bush and you'll see sun,
You will have a lot of fun.
Walk upon the beach at dawn,
Forget about your bloody lawn!
Eat, and laugh, and drink some wine.
You'll go back home feeling fine.

  1. I like your poem, looks like a beautiful spot to stay, I can feel your pain at not being able to access this anymore.
