Waiting game

Nestled in branches,
biding its time for glory,
becoming autumn.

Worthy of a crown

Eucalyptus trees along a creek, Canberra

Royal family,
flaunting from their balcony;
trees on my bike path.

Hold your ground

Large and luscious tree along the bike path, Canberra

Protesting in peace,
against greedy land grabbers,
spreading love, strong roots.

I see you

a pair of purple swamphens, one looking directly at the camera, Canberra — Purple swamphens by the Lake Ginninderra, Canberra

Moving gingerly,
as predator towards prey,
worm eater locks eyes.

Fighter

a single eucalypt tree standing against a blue sky, Canberra

Battling with the blues,
fifty shades of greenery;
therapist, nature.
