Sunrise

Photo of the sun rising behind the Skycity tower in Auckland, as seen from the suburbs.

Bright summer mornings,
sunrise on the horizon—
rays of happiness.

Wave

A pop of colour—
lilies along the sidewalk,
waving to strangers.

Gently

Photo of ocean lapping on the rocks by the shore.

A gentle caress;

Public treasure

Rangitoto Island, Auckland

Hiding in plain sight
treasures we already own,
