Ranginui and Papatuanuku
Ranginui the Earth Mother and Papatuanuku the Sky Father.
They didn’t separate but their children, one day they begged them to separate for a lot more room to run and play, but there parent couldn't let go of each other. So they got the other gods to help push them apart.
They all agreed but one brother the god of the winds did not want
Them to apart from each other, but they already pushed, but the the god of wind Told Papatuanuku the other gods plans so Papatuanuku went closer to Ranginui. but one of the gods push with all his power, but he couldn't, so they all tried but they couldn't so they gave up
But they had forgot about Tane-Mahuta god of the forest, father of the birds and insects. He pushed and very slowly ranginui and papatuanuku pushed apart, there distance became so far for the first time all the children were standing and stretching their arms above their heads, but It was enough so tane-mahuta pushed again.
Atlast the gods could feel the sun on their face. Papatuanuku cried so much the gods got scared they thought they would slowly drown, so they pulled on their mother hair until she turned on her face then.
She curled up into a ball then his tears made the lake, rivers and the sea
In time mother earth and sky father forgave their children,
But wish to be in each other's arms again, Mother earth to this day still sends her love to Sky father out of the morning mist in the deepest valleys And sky father sends his love everyday as fresh ju drops
And the rain in the night unlikes his mother and father to this day is
Still angry every time you hear the wind go across your face and rattle your doors it is the god of wind making you remember.
