Welcoming

Photo of a leafless tree with clouds in the background, and mild sunset colours.

Far-reaching dendrites
invite collaboration—
tree tops and rain drops.

Dance

Photo of a bonsai tree leaning to one side.

Owning the full stage,
limbs sprawled; ardent expressions—
bonsai stuns viewers.

Watch

Photo of the sun setting behind a group of trees, as seen through a window.

Peeking through bare trees,
an eye in the horizon—
tiredly the sun sets.

Bold

Photo of the widespread branches of a tree, as seen from below its canopy.

Spreading tentacles
across the ocean blue sky,
assertive old tree.

Ceaseless

Close up photo of a big red flower that’s past its prime. It’s still fresh, but starting to brown on the edges and developing spots on its petals.

Scarred on the edges,
wrinkles of age on the face—
still, flower shines on.
