A River's Mouth
The song is part of a folk opera I wrote called 'A Boy & the Sea'. The story is about a young Maori boy and his friendship with the Maori god of the sea, Tangaroa.
At this stage of the story, the boy has grown into an older man, and with his grandchild upon his knee before the ocean he recounts his journey through the contours of his life.
He guides his grandchild, who is now at the beginning of his own journey.
