Teamwork

Photo of the port side of a tall ship with the ropes alongside it.

Aboard a tall ship—
where our egos go to die;
bonds are made stronger.

Zoo

Photo of giraffes and zebras in a large enclosure, with giraffes nibbling on leaves hung on dead tree limbs.
Auckland zoo

Gently the giants
nibble away at dead trees;
observing humans.

Promotion

Close up photo of a rose in a bush with several other roses around it.

A sea of roses
at the top of their careers
waiting to be picked.

Unpredictable

photo of a rough ocean on a cloudy day
Auckland city as seen from the ferry

Weather systems change;
riotous one day calm next—
volatile toddler.

Still

Photo of the sky tower in Auckland as seen from below on a partly cloudy day. Tree limbs twist in the foreground with the sun glinting through them.

The city is still,
from ashes branches protrude
bare from winter’s bite.
