Bound

Photo of a bunch of purple hydrangeas.

Handcuffed together
hydrangea in summertime,
there are no loopholes

Spring

Close up photo of Pōhutukawa flowers on the tree with a few sky in the background.

Little vibrant bursts
against an overcast sky
first signs of springtime

Air

Close up photo of a small purple flower surrounded by a dense green bush.

Small purple flower
in between the wilderness
coming up for air.

Social

Photo of a bee on a bunch of flowers.

Master networker;
busily the bee buzzes
flowers become friends.

Appreciation

Photo of a single, budding flower hanging from a tree’s branch.

Puts herself out there;
who will cheer the lone flower,
tell her she is brave?
