Unmissable

Winter blossoms, Canberra

Seeking attention,
budding as young talent does—
showing off, nature.

Glory together

Trees in bloom, Canberra

Seasons all in one—
spring, summer, autumn, winter,
when nature intends.

The judge

Winter sunset, Canberra

Observing the world,
looking down on the earthlings—
ancient trees, godlike.

In a gift shop

Buddha statue in a shop in Pashupatinagar, a small town at the India-Nepal border — In a shop in Pashupatinagar, a small town at the India-Nepal border

Silently pensive,
observing world’s rise and fall—
like god, the statue.

Comes to us all

One Tree Hill, Auckland, New Zealand

Reaching all over,
wrapping arms around the throat—
time overtakes life.
