MAKE BELIEVE to restful Thinking

Koke Kokaua 1954 (Christchurch)



I thought that all I could see of life
And what it could do was laid out for me
But I was shrouded in some sort of illusion
There is no quality or tested confusion
That all was that
What I could see what I sense and touch and think
Is certainly no make believe
