Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 466 In this 466th issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the tale of "The Poi Dance – A Maori Legend”. ONCE, UPON A TIME, a long, long time ago and far, far away, out of the semi-darkness of the whare-puni (house hall) a shrill voice is heard ringing, and soon is accompanied by other voices and by clapping of hands, beating time for a poi-dance. Discordantly the first voice pierces the bustle, and laughter there is, and moving and shifting, to make room for the dancers, for the girls and the young women. Graceful figures dressed in piu-pius come forward, coyly and laughing, with whirling of pois, taking up their positions, and all is clamour of getting ready for an amusement, highly enjoyed by spectators and dancers. So what is a Poi and what is the Legend out of which the Poi dance was created? To find the answers to these questions, and others you may have, you will have to download and read this story to find out! NOTE: In Māori mythology Hawaiki is the place where Io, the supreme being, created the world and its first people. It is the place from which each person comes, and it is where each will return after death.

THE state of things at Kaiapoi was intolerable. No one was sure of obtaining his dinner regularly; no one could say when he himself might not be converted into a dinner for the most dreadful monster that ever existed. Not far from the pa, in a den of his own special making, lived the Talking Taniwha. Inaccessible, possessingthe power of self-metamorphosis, invulnerable, tremendous, voracious, insatiable, this awful beast preyed upon the unfortunate people of Kaiapoi, till their plumpost maidens and well-grown young men, their tender children and well-conditioned women were all devoured, and none but the weeds of the tribe were left. With things in such a state the miserable remnants sent for help to Kiu, whose fame as a tohunga extended through the length of the three islands. He possessed the power of communicating with departed spirits, and had made his home at Otaki, the headquarters of the Warrior Tribe, where he lived a useful and lucrative life; performing much devilry for the benefit of those who supplied him liberally with this world's goods and tendered him abundant homage. To this great wizard came the takata hara, the representative of the degenerate people of Kaiapoi, the sinful survivors of a race which;spoke the bastard Moriori tongue. This man, having made obeisance to Kiu, unburdened himself of his message. "It is true, great priest," said he, "that I am a member of the accursed tribe which has no knowledge of the gods, a people without sanctity. Consequently, my relatives are the prey of a terrible monster, who lives in a deep hole in the low-lying land not far from the seashore. When we go out to fish, this taniwha turns himself into a huge creature of the sea, and filling his hole with water...
