Central Kaiapoi
December 2011
Built 1858-1865. This is just one end of what was once a very large building. Most of the rest has fallen.

A local inspecting the damage to St Lukes Church after the 6.3 quake hit.
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls
Take a look to the sky just before you die
It's the last time you will
Blackened roar, massive roar, fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now are his eyes to this...

Reflection of the Christchurch Cathedral before Feb 22rd Earthquake
This winter-eve is warm,
Humid the air! leafless, yet soft as spring,
The tender purple spray on copse and briers!
And that sweet city with her dreaming spires,
She needs not June for beauty's heightening,
Lovely all times she lies, lovely to-night!—
From "Thyrsis: A Monody" by Matthew Arnold 1822–1888
