Ageing

Those tiny grey hairs;
ancient ferns, shrivelling fronds,
gracefully ageing

photo of the sun shining through the trees

Shining down on me,
tiny diamond in the sky
nestled among trees.

Photo of the landscape of Wellington, New Zealand, at sunset, as seen from the window of a plane.
Wellington, New Zealand

Homeward

photo of light sunset over the Auckland city shoreline, as seen from the window of a tall building with boats on the water

Boats drop their anchors,
sun sets over our city,
lovers going home.
