Neighbour

photo of the sunset as seen through a tree's twisted branches

Tall, slender, curvy,
sun shining over her hair—
stands the tree next door.

Outdoors

photo of the setting sun shining on the top of a pine tree

Bit of pine sighting
as the world’s busy fighting
half-hearted sunshine

Modern world

photo of an individual house across the street with a large gumtree looming behind it

Urbanisation—
an ancient gumtree stands guard,
behind each big house.

Disappointing

closeup photo of a flower with its base flowering and its tip still intact

An unfulfilled life—
a flower forgets to bloom,
half-baked mushroom pie.

Cleanse

Plants on our side walk,
refreshing summertime breeze
helping clear our heads
