green on green on green.

Flowering

Little pink droplets
raining down on my back yard
a feast for the bees

Sail

photo of boats docked on the coast, with the sunset's last rays on top of the sails.

Summer sun kissed sails—
on shore I stand longingly
gently rippling waves.

Happy

photo of the crater at Mount Eden in Auckland, as seen from the summit

High, we find ourselves
so ecstatically drunk
on fresh mountain air.

Extend

Fisher seeks fresh food,
casting a line far and wide,
giant tree does, too.
