Scarred on the edges,
wrinkles of age on the face—
still, flower shines on.

Scarred on the edges,
wrinkles of age on the face—
still, flower shines on.

No competition;
looking down on the lamp posts,
gumtree swings its leaves.

Highlight of the day:
sun setting the sky on fire;
summer silhouettes.

Stretching lazy limbs,
cracking joints and waking up,
overnight plane lands.
