Collector’s items

Queen Victoria market, Melbourne

Colourful, shiny;
a possession to posses—
material things

Imprints

Bamboo trees at the Royal Botanical Gardens, Sydney — Bamboo trees, Royal Botanical Gardens, Sydney

Scrawled in history,
engraved into memory,
the human footprint.

Seasonal feels

The Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney

Dripping icicles;
chilly shards run down my spine—
my whiskey blossoms.

Graffiti in AC/DC Lane, Melbourne

The street smart artist—
soul on lowly alleyways;
body in high-rise.

Master of all

Melbourne

Looks down from above,
smiles at lake below—contained;
from above, smile clouds.
