Ko te Ratu 15 o te Whiringa-a-nuku o tenei ra.
I Know What It Was .
They said it was just
an owl in the tree but they didn’t
fool me!
I saw teeth
not a beak,
red eyes not gold,
and I won’t be told
it was only fluff and features
round its throats;
it was a collar
and those weren’t wings
of a black,black cloak.
That was no
Too-wit,too woo
I head
It was
I’ll get you-ou
Patricia Leighton.
