Strewn

Flowers and leaves of a lacebark tree

Reflecting the mind—
haphazardly in my yard,
dead-flower army.

Time’s up

close up photo of a drooping sunflower, alomost a week old

Nearly giving up,
droopy head eyeing the ground,
heat-stroked sunflower.

Downcast

Eggplant/aubergine flower

Shy adolescent,
bright as an eggplant flower,
eyes down on the phone.

Blown away

photo of lacebark tree flowers fallen on the ground, on the shadow of the tree
Leaves and flowers of a lacebark tree

Swoosh of summer breeze,
pink blossoms drop to the earth;
sweep me off my feet.

Thing of beauty

photo of a still beach from afar
Sellicks beach, Adelaide

A face unblemished,
not even a pimple prick—
perfect model: beach.
