Strewn

photo of freshly-fallen lacebak flowers on the ground, along with dried leaves — Flowers and leaves of a lacebark tree

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

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

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

Prints

A fashion statement—
stripes in contrasting colours,
catwalk of beach rocks.

Peace

A wandering soul
must have a beach of her own,
if she is to rest.
