Whilst across the timeless seas to the bottom of the planet, incessant rain, snow and thrashing wind has rendered pugged cow paddocks, grassless.
Stored woodpiles, depleted due to wood fires burning continuously in hearths across the nation.
Small children, woolied up running for the morning school bus, white chilly faces and pink flushed cheeks.
Surf pounds the black sand dunes with foam flying in the gale, the marram grass howls and seagulls, flying in tortured formation, shriek their mutual rage.
Midwinter is upon us.
