Kia Kaha Poem by lindsay Dougherty

Kia Kaha



I will be strong.
I will stand up and face life’s wind of thorns, with a strong mind and open heart.
I will accept life’s pleasures with gladness and glee.
I will treasure and learn from life’s lessons and share them if need be.
I will nurture my children and teach them right from wrong.
I will show and share love with my friends.
I will be strong in the face of my enemies, but show them compassion and help if they need it.
I will listen and share in children’s laughter by day and marvel at stars in night sky.
My heart will always be expecting and my mind will search for the truth.
And when its over I will no that they’ll miss me, but ill just slip quietly away..

Kia ora.. this is a toanga your tamariki will behold... your journey may be made with quiet footprints but your sharing presence will be held on high... Aroha and kia kaha.. One peace at a time... xxx
