Maori greeting



Battle of the Mountains


Battle of the Mountains

Tongariro the mighty mountain, loved Pihanga the lady mountain.

Pihanga was sad because Tongariro was her mate and the other mountains were fighting him.

 

Taranaki glared at Tongariro.

For days the battle went on.

Fiery boulders went everywhere.

Tongariro won the battle.

 

Taranaki went west.

Tauhara kept looking back at Pihanga and only got to end of Lake Taupo.

 

When the sun came up the mountains froze where they were rooted to the spot.
