COLLECTED POEMS AND PAINTINGS - CD Hunter
Ligar Bay ’64Below the white memorial
In the faith jetted sea
Washed at the high stone edgeCamouflaged through time
Bevelled stone narrates to curlew
eye; lapidary tales in Maori.This is Te Atua’s abode,
Host to quiet ships-
‘Massacre’ bay; scene of
Europe’s botched collusion.
