Through the eyes of a British Soldier by Whakarato

SummaryThrough the eyes of a British Soldier by Whakarato from Otumoetai Intermediate School was part of an entry by Room 17 into the 150th commemoration of the Battle of Gate Pā Poetry Poster Competition (2014). Main Body
I feel threatened

What are they wearing? Korowai, taonga, puipui

Where are they hiding?

We should be able to win this battle because there are 1700

Of us and only 230 of them

Why do we hear screaming when we should be winning

My mind is confused

Now I’m wondering is this going to be my last day

Tell my family that I love them if it is.
