TAIHOA
Taupo's population has Gone up with a leap. A welcome sight; so many prams Where infants sit or sleep. Arises here a problem (And mention it we must), Arises with each passing car, A smother of white dust. Babies, in this atmosphere, Suffer, one supposes, From pumice in their lungs and ears, And up their little noses. There is, dear friends, a remedy, Believe me, 'tis no fable, To drive past every pram you see As slowly as you're able.
— Treve Price.
