- matariki poem

The sound of celebration and happiness radiated
delicious smells coated the air;
cultural food and fresh drinks are devoured;
stomachs full, with kai to spare
a legend is told, a quiet hum is heard;
distant relatives bond, singing and dancing
a priceless sky is seen, 400 light years away
the night of a new year
to those who remember their roots
