Warm glow

Summertime basking,
slithering along the edge—
sweat beads on eyebrows.

Remembering

A string musical instument made of leather on display at the Queen Victoria Museum and Gallery in Launceston, Tasmania - the instument's shadows are visible on the wall behind it
Queen Victoria Museum and Gallery, Launceston, Tasmania

Reverberating,
lingering between cobwebs—
shadows of the past.

Chase

Imagine walking up three hills like this to get home every day.

Life’s uphill battle:
moving only by inches,
racing to find peace.

Treasure

A full rack of clothes in an op-shop.
My favourite op-shop in Canberra: Green Shed

Lifetime of stories,
tucked away in every fold,
op-shop memories.

Scenery

Photo of a lush green valley with some fern trees in neat rows.
Grindelwald Village resort, Tasmania

Velvety green cake,
plump, piping ferns for toppings—
too nice to disturb.
