A long long time ago, as if we were in the days of the dinosaurs lived two proud Maunga above and below the pristine Pacific ocean. (Hook/grabber) There two maunga were deeply in love as if they were Ranginui- the sky father and Papatuanuku the earth mother. However, Maungarei stood tall above the sea as if was Sir Edmund Hillary and Rangitoto below the deep blue sea as if she was the earth's core.

It wasn’t all happy joy,joy because these two Lovebirds were Separated by litres and litres of Pacific ocean and could not see each other as if they were blinded by love. They haven’t seen each other but when she was underwater she heard his tune and Rangitoto was ready to see him. Maungarei and Rangitoto could not see each other but still communicated through song as if they were big blue.

Everyday here lava grew by listening to his tune. Rangitoto was ready than ever to meet her man mountain. Through song Karakia and hope Rangitoto blew and rose from the sea but her back was turned to him. Maungarei was dormant like that of a inactive volcano until he heard his Queen Latifah sing his song. There was then another eruption Like  the Christchurch Earthquake and Maungarei was then drawn to the side of his darling like a magnet. Then they finished the song and they were in love with each other and they sang together and the song was finished. Then they loved each other forever.

Alone- Like a jeeper.

Love- like a cough, can’t be hidden.

Happy- As a queen for her birthday.

Old- as a circus joker.

Sad- As the sunless sea.

Sleeping- Like sleeping beauty.

Stone- as a stonework.

Listening-  Listened like one in whom a train of novel ideas had been excited by the reasoning of the other.

Growing-   Growing like smoke.

Singing- Sing like an angel..

Dream- as a Baby.
