Necessity

Royal Botanical Gardens, Sydney

Decorative cage,
symbol of reality—
for nature haters.

Eye candy

Summer sky during sunset

As teenage heart throb,
a swirling mass of beauty—
sun setting; sky fire.

Immovable asset

Fitzroy Gardens, Melbourne

Invest in nature—
though money doesn’t grow on trees—
true happiness does.

Experience

Handmade artefacts for sale at the National Multicultural Festival, Canberra

Listen; lend an ear,
hear the oceans whispering,
live; not just exist.

Ultimate surviver

Graffiti, Melbourne alleyways

In the sticky smell
of an aerosol-smeared tyre
survives the painter.
