Treat

full moon on a clear sky, as seen through tree branches

Pearl of the ocean,
treating gazers with its grace—
full moon in the sky.

Dilemma

a footpath in a park, surrounded by green and early-autumn trees, Launceston, Tasmania — Punchbowl Reserve, Launceston, Tasmania

Mildly-trodden path
calls me to a promised land—
to go or stay, awed?

Sight to behold

strawberry bushes in the sunlight, Hillwood Berry Farm, Launceston, Tasmania — Hillwood Berry Farm, Launceston, Tasmania

Basking in sunshine,
showing off to greedy world—
strawberry bushes.

Drop dead gorgeous

leaf-less tree with branches extending in all directions — Cataract Gorge, Launceston

Limbs branching outwards,
in a posing match with trees,
I’d lose, fall as leaves.

Sail away

private boats docked on the harbour on a cloudy day — Launceston, Tasmania

Sailing out to sea,
not a single cloud in mind—
a sky full of them.
