Deep cove
ReplyDeleteAmazing Deep Cove
Amazing views at Deep Cove
Laughing all the time
And thats my haiku
Deep Cove Acrostic poem
ReplyDeleteDolphins leaping through the water.
Eating crayfish at dinner.
Exciting, exhilarating experiences.
Peaceful paradise surrounds me.
Clambering over tree roots and slippery rocks.
Outstanding, untouched environment
Very dangerous tree roots threatening to trip me
Epic waterfalls, thundering down
Acrostic Poem - Deep Cove
ReplyDeleteD olphins swimming beside the boat
E aten alive by sandflys
E xtraordinary senary walks and fish
P owerfall waterfalls that can blow you of your feet
C atching fish of the boats and wharf
O ver the walmot pass to Deep Cove
V arying plants everywhere and anywhere
E xciting to see wild life you don't see everyday
Dark cold forest
ReplyDeleteEverlasting rain
Endangered animals
People tramping
Cold water makes me shiver
Overpowering noise of the waterfall
Very wet shoes and clothes
Exciting times when you get to the top of hanging valley
Deep cove Acrostic poem
ReplyDeleteDevious keas destroying everything.
Epic experience changing my life.
Exciting tramps turning into nightmares afterwards.
Parents cooking scrumptious food.
Carnivorous sand-flies biting everyone to death.
Oversize dolphins making people “woo”.
Various wildlife running around in the dense bush.
Enormous fish swimming around as we catch all the small ones.
Deep, murky waters.
ReplyDeleteEating lunch at Stella Falls.
Endangered species left in peace.
Pooped at the end of each day.
Covered in mud.
Over the tree roots.
Very, VERY tired after every walk.
Eager to reach the top and have a rest.

Endangered species fighting for survival
Exciting to see wildlife that you don't often see
