Sights

Photo of the coast of Wellington, New Zealand, in the distance, as seen from the window of a plane with a vibrant blue sky and scattered clouds.

Miles of deep blue fields,
lush bushes nestled beneath
my airplane window.

A happy haven,
strong independent woman;
bug on a flower.

Gone

Photo of a private beach, with a mountain range in the distance and a small jetty on the left side of the photo.

Lapped up by the waves;

two humans, a three legged dog—

footprints on the beach.

Explosion

Photo of Rangitoto Island as seen from Mt. Hobson. — Rangitoto Island, as seen from Mt. Hobson

Child plays with wet paint;
tiny drop in the ocean
explosion of land.

Good giants

Photo of a large tree and a wooden bench bathed in its canopy.

Casting great shadows,
giants loom over our heads—
trees, summer relief.
