A view after the 6.3 magnatude quake hit Christchurch 22 February 2011.
As time drifts by, more quickly now it seems!
Somewhere inside of me youth still lingers,
I’m still chasing dreams and butterflies
And gazing at rainbows in wonder!
For I believe youth never fades
In the eyes of those who can see
From the inside out!
From a poem by Annab...
