Works

Photo of Adelaide city, as seen from the window seat of an airplane, as it comes in for landing.

All the world’s a stage:
parks, rivers, corporations;
you and I, workers.

Safe

Close up photo of a tiny bird’s egg in a nest, on the ground, surrounded by grass.

Nest on my garden
tiny egg nestled within—
mulch keeping it cool.

Home

Photo of dead gum tree barks against a cloudless blue sky.

I watch the gums be,
embracing the cloudless sky,
owning their country.

Dying

Close up photo of a red rose with most of its petals dropped.

A broken red rose
bleeds all over my front yard—
spring breeze pays homage.

Who cares?

Human existence—
a bundle of emotions;
little regarded.
