Work day

Early morning on a summer day, just before the vehicles came, Canberra

Unbalancing life,
in the wee hours of morning—
the wheels of fortune.

Fate of the passive

Statue of a seated lady at the Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra — Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra

Never once admired,
ever scorned at as lazy;
the seated lady.

Reaching out

Thinning out treetops,
extending, as spider webs,
dancing in mid-air.

Evolution

Day and night, nature;
peaceful transfer of power,
unlike humankind.

And rises the moon

As the sunset flows,
flashing as cameras do,
on, the street lamps glow.
