Poetry

Away down Coromandel way
there is a really beautiful bay
After Captain Kennedy it was named
Now for its Beauty it is famed.

Over the ranges one must travel
where after winding roads unravel
Lies sparkling water and golden sand
a spot as pretty as in the land.

a peaceful picturesque retreat.
a haven away from city heat.
Nestled in by bushclad land
there the Hunter house does stand.

Clear blue waters lap the shore
fish and crays are there galore
children bathe and laugh aloud
tis indead a sanctuary from the crowd.
