Poem: Wai-O-Tapu Wonder

My travelogue poem

Nature’s Alchemy

In Wai-O-Tapu’s land so grand and wide,

A palette of nature’s own vivid pride.

Geothermal wonders far and near,

Landscapes that make us cheer and revere.

Champagne Pool with its bubbling grace,

Colors swirling, a mesmerizing embrace.

Steam rising, a curtain of mist,

In this ancient land, magic persists.

Yellows, greens, blues, and more,

A visual feast, nature’s core.

Minerals dance in waters deep,

Creating scenes we wish to keep.

Trails that twist through scenes so wild,

Each turn, each step, nature’s own child.

From lush green bush to terrain so stark,

Every view hits the mark, a vivid landmark.

In this place where earth speaks loud,

With geothermal might, it stands proud.

Taupo’s zone of volcanic lore,

Teaching us about the core’s fiery store.

Information boards, a learning trail,

Geology, ecology, a detailed tale.

Paths and boardwalks guide our way,

Ensuring we’re safe as we stray.

Wai-O-Tapu, a memory etched,

In our hearts, its beauty sketched.

For Instagram, for knowledge, for awe,

Its wonders fill us with joy and more.

A trip to remember, a place to return,

For in our minds, these memories burn.

So here’s to Wai-O-Tapu, so grand and true,

A natural wonderland, through and through.

With every step, with every view,

We find the world, bright and new.

So let’s toast to this journey we’ve had,

In Wai-O-Tapu’s embrace, forever glad.
