that you meet yourself

photo : The Grove, scenic reserve, Pohara, young rimu which has undoubtedly inspired a number of legends.
l
The tree was drifting/
in the middle of the forest/
It was about/
letting the wind, and time take its course/
So I followed/
its movements/
oh so slow,
in a kind of renunciation/
of heat, and of time/
and of his nonchalant destiny
#3073 little stories
photo : The Grove, Clifton, Golden Bay
I spent a few days in Pohara, Goden Bay, two hours from Nelson. Several things brought me back: the sea, the walk nearby at The Grove, a forest resembling Jurassic Park, dotted with gigantic limestone rocks, the rock formations typical of the coast. For the second time I went for a walk in The Grove the forest seemed filled with mysterious profiles carved in the rocks, as well as in the trees and I can understand how many fantastic legends could have emerged from time passed there. Maybe you will see those mysterious faces too.
#petites histoires
J’ai passé quelques jours à Pohara, Goden Bay, à deux heures de Nelson. Plusieurs choses m’y ont ramenée : la mer, la marche dans la forêt de Clifton, The Grove, aux allures de parc jurassique, parsemée de rocs calcaires gigantesques, les formations rocheuses typique de la côte. Pour la seconde fois, j’y suis allée me promener et il m’a semblé cette fois y voir des profils mystérieux dans les rochers, aussi bien que dans les arbres et je peux comprendre comment de nombreuses légendes fantastiques ont pu naître de telles promenades. Peut-être les y verrez-vous aussi.
