    Thanks, Jo. This was written at Catherine Mair's place in Katikati where we were gathered for lunch and haiku. The 'heavy traffic' is in reference to the busyness of my mind as well as the actual traffic passing by day and night outside my home. Visiting the country can instantly calm me - I must visit it more often, if only in my mind.
