Almost there

pink blossom buds with a blurry yellow wattle tree in the background

Bravely the bulbous
on the brink of emergence
seeking spring sun shine

Desert time

photo of dark clouds over a sandy coast

Vaguely-cloaked, darkness,
chases sandy mirages
carries rain away.

Uprising

Canberra's iconic Telstra Tower, as seen from below, through a thin eucalypt tree grove — Canberra’s iconic Telstra Tower

Dead matter rising
invigorated by earth
monumental growth

In time

a tree bark and branches without

Seasonal baldness,
cold spine, weak limbs, comes to all,
trees age gracefully.

Watchmen

leafless trees on the sidewalk on a rainy, cloudy day

Skeletons sulking
popping up on every street
cold winter morning
