Te Awanga

In the afternoon sun
That brown grasses laying low
Like a shag tobacco
In contrast with your ???
Beyond with the white birds diving
Beyond with the white birds diving
Flying along the Brimdog drain
Easiest way's the main lagoon?
Chock with slime and river weed?
Home to the odd carp waters
Home to the odd carp waters
A final groyne way
To the estuary
And extension
The pacific ocean near
Te Awanga
Te Awanga
Like a tired life
Like a tired life
From a distant land
To a far off land
At the edge of the world
A trip by metal boat
6 weeks and all afloat
Met King, King Neptune
In the tropical sun
Like a round peg
In a square hole
It's not easy
In a new land
When you don't really fit in
Things, total things
Still learning!
Still learning
