‘View From The Rotunda’
More of the rotunda (see Band Rotunda ),this time from within the vintage structure in the Auckland Domain.
It’s quiet now, but come summer, come post-Covid (whenever that will be),there will be concerts, bands and music to lift the spirit.
Meantime, there is a pause before the show that hits the right notes for me, right now.
Are you finished yet ?
Washed up.
Like desiccated, limp seaweed.
On a shore of equally broken shells.
Maybe you were dragged to this place unwillingly, or you just meandered your way here on the sea swells.
The how is irrelevant.
As is the why.
The question is : Is it true?
That you are done.
That your worth is spent.
I think not.
Prove ’em wrong.
More importantly, prove it yourself.
Lead yourself to new climes.
You owe your spirit that much at least.
Are you finished yet ?
Pohutukawa trees – shore sentinels as the day fades – the spirit of home, always.
