Poetry
RAPA NUI With such certainty The stone adze struck Unyielding tuff. Sometimes the masons Would wipe their brows And survey the line Drawn where ocean met sky. Way beyond it, Chinese potters made exquisite vessels, Aztecs built Tenochtitlan, Egyptians immortalised the Nile And America sat unknown. But here on the slopes Of Ranu Raraku They chipped away Day by day Making their moai For the dead And for the Extolment of the living. There was never a doubt That's what life Was all about. 28.10.09 from Yorkshire Pudding https://ift.tt/mFnqE3D
