Peace

Photo of a white cat sleeping on the floor sideways, comfortably, his paws raised in mid air.

Every long day ends;
peace comes in various forms—
even as a cat.

Out

Photo of a double rainbow with dark clouds in the background

Braving through the storm,
painting the skies in rainbow,
the sun’s coming out.

Light

photo of two tall leaf-less trees on one side of the pther, with a lot of flowering bushes on the other side of the path

Lamp posts on sidewalks,
giving light to many lives—
wind-swept, tall-tree limbs.

Beginnings

Bud of a bottlebrush, a native Australian tree from the Myrtaceae family

Tiny shoots of spring—
I raise my camera high,
to new beginnings.

Worship

photo of a bush of birds of paradise flowers against a deep blue sky

Bent knees and raised arms,
praying to heavenly gods,
birds of paradise.
