Desperate times

Model of a butterfly — Model of a butterfly in a local mall in Canberra

Vibrance of nature,
due to lack of attention,
now shelters in malls.

Behaviour

Crooked tree, Melbourne CBD

Gladly unaware,
defiantly-crooked trees—
sometimes like people.

Step aside

For healing sunshine,
and joyous blossoming fruit—
why not just give way?

Colonisation

Sun setting as light clouds pass by, Canberra

Combing through our skies,
diluting life-giving clouds—
buildings; human needs.

Hope

Calmly sets the sun,
despite these unsettling times—
a bright horizon.
