Seth’s World View

On Cuba Street, minstrels play, children listen
I sit and think, and watch and ponder meaning
Water flows, down it splashes, sounds careening
A tapestry of people, places, glisten

In Wellington, New Zealand, summer days
They shine through clouds, those long and white and warm
While wind sweeps across like a wicked swarm
It leaves all trees and men all blind in haze
