A Whole Handful
Five fingers, a whole handful, of toetoe plumes in the still Auckland evening.
All you can hold in the moment, and the moment is all you have.
“From one seed a whole handful: that was what it meant to say the bounty of the earth” – J.M.Coetzee
Little moments, even quiet ones, are full in themselves but are also seeds of abundance.
Easter Golden Plume
The bloom of the NZ-endemic toetoe grass feels right as my non -religious symbol for Easter time – soft and feathery but standing defiant in the crisp breeze, flexing and then returning to position -incandescent gold in the late afternoon sun. Gorgeous….something about them lifts the spirit.

Flame Feathers
The kakaho (flowering stems) of the native NZ toetoe plant caught in the late afternoon sunlight.
