Waiheke Island

Art and nature, artifice or landscape. An outdoor sculpture display on Waiheke Island made for a great art walk/tramp (the New Zealand lingo for a hike.)




Seek a relentless clarity
which frames the soul



drinking a glass of the wine dark sea
in a harbor of shadow and sun




only connect...
with fragile bands of thread
to earth and dust, ourselves




Dickinson's certain slant of light
this crossing, those other journeys
to be endured



sinews of steel,
our carpace of flesh,
yearning for release.
