Tauranga Bay
Sands soft, softer than seal pups,
Waves louder than thunder
Kahawai stream through the bay
Blue penguins glide through the water
like their opponents,
the Kahuna board riders,
surfing onto the rocks.
Stinky seals and cute pups
watching them in jealousy
On the lighthouse walk
an astrolabe gazes to the horizon
and the bay
watching for anything moving
protected in its see-through box
surfers skim waves
as white foam crashes crazily onto beaches.
Meanwhile I wonder if it's safe… ?

HI Flynn, Molly here from Rm 7. I think that this is a very cool post. I like how you have put a simile in your poem. I also like how you have put in lots of creative words.
