Drop dead gorgeous

leaf-less tree with branches extending in all directions
Cataract Gorge, Launceston

Limbs branching outwards,
in a posing match with trees,
I’d lose, fall as leaves.

Biodiversity

Riverside sunshine—
million micro organisms,
heroes without capes.

Charity

A 100-something year-old tree, Cataract Gorge, Launceston

Embracing us all,
gives to black, white, and between,
tree arms, alms to world.

Finding peace

Weaving through bushes—
huffing, puffing, racing heart,
calm and clear the head.

Reaching for the sky

Zig Zag Trail in the Cataract Gorge in Launceston, Tasmania

Uplifting wind blows,
each step down is a step up—
walk the wilderness.
