= Rain = I hear Rain pitter-patter on my roof I look out my window I have to wipe it with my sleeve All I can see is cold watery clouds fog Giant puddles of water on the road I think What I should do? I can’t stop the rain but I can stay out of it! I will take an umbrella to school Alright then let’s go! I walked down the street I noticed it had stopped raining I pulled down my Umbrella

Town of peace High above the mountain is the clouds and souls of what used to be a great civilisation led by the great Te Whiti but taken by the pakeha

for days and days the pakeha were trying to take Parihakas land

they made fences and crops with the land they stole they made roads and burnt the great town of parihaka

=My diptych explination=

While the they are trying to make war with Parihaka. My diptych shows that the name Parihaka is big and strong. I chose The colour green to write Parihaka because I thought it was peaceful yet strong.
 * Destruction of peace ||
 * Matthew Hendry || My diptych shows that Parihaka is showing peace to the Europeans

I chose a yellow & orange backround because I thought the yellow was a bright and a peaceful colour. I chose orange because I think it represents war.
