Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lays From Maoriland: Being Songs and Poems, Scottish and English To My Wife. Had I the poet's all-persuasive art, And Music's magic numbers at command, 'Twould need them all to paint thy tender heart, And show how pity still directs thy hand. For every tale of woe thou hast a tear, All the unhappy find in thee a friend; And even the guilty may suppress their fears, And on thy gentle clemency depend. How oft I've seen thee bending o'er some couch, While words of pity issued from thy tongue, And then some gift came stealing from thy pouch, To show how much his woe thy bosom wrung. Nor gifts alone, but cheerful service given, As if suck acts entailed no sacrifice, But were the work appointed thee of Heaven, As stepping-stones by which the lost may rise. Compared to these, how vain the world's applause! Its highest honours meretricious dross; The humblest often is the noblest cause, And Heaven's best gifts may simulate a cross. Wm. M. Stenhouse.

Download or read book Star Waka written by Robert Sullivan and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published on the cusp of the new millennium, Maori poet Robert Sullivan's third book of poems, Star Waka, explores themes of journeying and navigation, moving back and forth in time and focus to confront colonisation, contemporary political issues and personal questions of family and identity. It came with some strings attached: each poem had to feature either a star, a waka (canoe) or the ocean. Within these parameters, and in 2001 lines, Sullivan creates 100 poems that, he says, themselves function like a waka: &‘members of the crew change, the rhythm and the view changes &– it is subject to the laws of nature'.

Book excerpt: Before us lies the valley of the Drave, one of those endless wildernesses where even the wild beast loses its way. Forests everywhere, maples and aspens a thousand years old, with their roots under water; magnificent morasses the surface of which is covered, not with reeds and water-lilies, but with gigantic trees, from the dependent branches of which the vivifying waters force fresh roots. Here the swan builds her nest; here too dwell the royal heron, the blind crow, the golden plover, and other man-shunning animals which are rarely if ever seen in more habitable regions.
