I te rere o te wā e tere haere ana, he rite tātou ki te hunga haereere i te ao haruru, e tere haere ana me ō tātou waewae, ko ō tātou wairua ia e takai ana i ngā paparanga o te pukumahi me te pēhanga. Ko ngā mea iti o te ao he rite ki ngā kirikiri onepū, e whakakī haere ana i ngā āputa o ō tātou ngākau. Ko aua kare ā-roto aroha mahana, ataahua hoki i mua ka memeha haere mārire, ka waiho he tirohanga pakoko, mokemoke anake. Ko te hydrangea kotahi, he rite ki te hihi o te mārama e wero ana i roto i te kohu, e whakamārama ana i te kokonga kua warewarehia i roto i ō tātou ngākau, e āhei ai tātou ki te awhi hou i te ora me te whakahoki mai i te mahana me te aroha kua ngaro roa.
He mea hanga ātaahua ngā rau o tēnei hydrangea mai i te hiraka pai, he rite tonu ki te ora o ia rau, ā, e āhua ana ka wiri i te pā noa iho. E tiaho ana me te kanapa ataahua i raro i te rā, me te mea nei kei te kōrero i tētahi kōrero tawhito, ngaro hoki. I taua wā tonu, i tino miharo ahau ki te hydrangea takitahi. Me te mea nei i kōrero ahau ki a ia puta noa i te wā me te wāhi. I roto i tēnei ao pukumahi, haruru hoki, i rite ki tētahi pērara marino, e whakamarie ana i tōku hinengaro koretake i taua wā tonu. I whakatau ahau ki te kawe ki te kāinga, kia waiho hei wāhi kanapa i roto i tōku ao.
Kua noho tēnei hydrangea takitahi hei hoa piripono mōku. I whakatakotoria e au ki te matapihi o taku rūma moe. I ia ata, ina whiti mai te hihi tuatahi o te rā mā te matapihi, te āhua nei kua ora ake, e tuku ana i te kanapa ngawari me te mahana. Ka noho puku ahau i te taha o te moenga, ka mātakitaki, ka rongo i tēnei marino me te ataahua. I rite ki te mea kua ngaro katoa ōku raruraru me ōku ngenge i tēnei wā.
I taku hokinga ki te kāinga me tōku tinana ngenge, ka kite ahau i te puawai hydrangea e puāwai mārire ana i reira, me te mea nei e manaaki ana i ahau. Ka mirimiri mārie ahau i ōna rau, ka rongo i te ngawari o te kakano, ā, ka memeha haere te ngenge me te mokemoke i roto i tōku ngākau.
