PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Wellington,

where the capricious sea

holds the hills

firmly in her arms

as a wild wind

does its best

to bend all

to its will.



Wellington,

the home of goverance.

Its tall towers

sternly oversee

the beating heart

and flowing blood

of fair Aotearoa.



Wellington,

culture capital.

The seeding of ideas

and the flowering of minds

flourish here,

cultivated, tended,

brought to fruition

in the hothouse

of the arts.



Wellington,

I stand here

on gusty shores

of Cook strait

where the bones

of the South Island

rest against the clouds,

and I am content

just to be.
