I miss the way the sun streams onto the leaves of the Kauri trees,
I miss the way my bed captures and grasps my tired weary head,
I miss seeing the rain trickling down the window pane, as the garden floods,
I miss the bright summer flowers staring up at the sun from early hours,
I miss sitting out for a beer while smelling the sweet summer air,
I miss being able to drive and finding the beaches that remind me how to survive,
I miss the acceptence of going to the warehouse in pajamas or swimming completely starkers,
I miss how the people live life with passion, not worrying about all the high street fashion,
I miss life as I have come to know it.
My sweet, NZ misses you too... but when you return (and you will return) it will all still be here, and you will be able to appreciate it so much more, knowing what can lay on the 'other' side. xx
