Waiho River Mouth
Ribbon-like white
Streaks the high horizon,
Where the ice oozes
Vertical to green.
From timeless boles
Ancient spars signal time
In dark leaf-stained water
Ancient insects cavort.
Starfish swim in rock pools
Flecked with glacier dust
Rivers retreat from intruders
Slicing the scarred landscape
Ribbon-like white
Streaks the high horizon,
Where the ice oozes
Vertical to green.
From timeless boles
Ancient spars signal time
In dark leaf-stained water
Ancient insects cavort.
Starfish swim in rock pools
Flecked with glacier dust
Rivers retreat from intruders
Slicing the scarred landscape
