Favourite things

Late Friday Theme

Witch-hazel and paper-whites on frosty Rotorua mornings.
Fires on the beach. Wood smoke and gingerbeer, and strands of flute music.
The smudgy handprint that a child left on my wall.
Tane Whai Ora – a beautiful whare out at Tapu Te Ranga
The view from the 6th floor of the university library.
Swedish gingerbread.
Hugs that last just that little bit longer.
Standing on a beach early in the morning, before any light has leaked into the world.
Creative endeavours that blur media and mix cultures.
The sound of puurerehua at night.
Solo cello.
Beeswax candles.
The curve between neck and shoulders.
Wreathes of spring flowers.
Little Blue Penguins.
Crushed fennel underfoot.
