Out

photo of a tiny flower in the ground, surrounded by dry and fresh grass

Glimmer of sunshine
tucked away under the bush
coming out of spring

Elder

photo of a gumtree with a sweet light reflecting in its peeling bark

Illuminated
a sage old village leader
skin-peeling gumtree.

Sun kissed

army of leafless trees along the footpath

Rising from the dead,
barren biting winter cold,
sun kissed, spring barks shine

Locked down

photo of a single, leafless tree on a sidewalk

Waves cheery hello
single social bubble bud
my neighbourhood tree.

Looming

full length shadow of a person on the footpath

Grows larger than life,
shadowing every movement,
the sun going down.
