timuniwa.blogspot.com: Poem: 'My Funny Bone A-Laughing!'
http://timuniwa.blogspot.com/2011/02/my-funny-bone-laughing.html
The blog of a budding children's poet and writer. Sunday, 6 February 2011. Poem: 'My Funny Bone A-Laughing! A silly poem I wrote after my 2 year-old daughter hit her elbow and to comfort her, I told her about her funny bone, something she had never heard of before. My nose, it is a-sniffing. My eyes, they are a-twitching. But the noise you hear around the room. Is my funny bone a-laughing! My knees, they are a-knocking. My teeth, they are a-chatt’ring. But the hearty cry in soulful sound. I am Timu Niwa.

The blog of a budding children's poet and writer. Monday, 18 October 2010. Why I Love Writing! As a child I loved writing! At school and at home I would write my own stories and plays and once I even created my own unique language and accompanying dictionary - playing with words was and still is a wonderful pastime of mine! In primary school I was selected to attend a workshop with a real-life author! But soon came to realise after much second-guessing that it was indeed a well-deserved comment of praise.

http://timuniwa.blogspot.com/2011/02/quick-note.html
The blog of a budding children's poet and writer. Sunday, 6 February 2011. Not what I expected and more experiences of writing block than I have experienced before. I am putting down the chapters for now and have bits of paper and notes blu-tacked to my wall in the laundry where I have a space to write. I think that I will stick to what I enjoy for now! And my fingers rolling again! Many thanks again,. 6 February 2011 at 18:56. Nothing like a bit of tino rangtirantanga on Waitangi Day.lol! I am Timu Niwa.
