Purerehua Poem

PUREREHUA POEM


Sounds of whirring Rurangrango, blowfly
Makes you feel like you’re near a tornado in the sky


Gives you a shiver down your spine
Like you’re nervous because your names in headlines


Deep, buzzing sound blowing in your ears
Just don't let that be your fears


Carvings, shells and paint for decorations
That's just part of our great Nations


Try and make Lizards come to you
Just hope they’re not contagious and give you the flu


Made off Bone, Stone and Wood

Now you need to make that in your Childhood

Weta PoemC

Although your ears on your legs
silent at night, you make no sound
You burrow a hole and lay eggs in a mound
creeping at night stealthily
easy to camouflage difficult to see
often found beneath the beech tree
Omnivore, eater of plants and invertebrates
searching for Kai nocturnally
Brown stripes, skinny legs  with spikes
one kick from it's legs stings like bee
night time predator hunting prey
Only a stoat or rat can make you flee
between grassland,  shrubland and forest
Your  habitat is likely to be leafy
It is called a ground weta for a reason

digging in its burrow searching deeply
