New season

Spring blossoms, Canberra

Look up then look down,
ever it’ll stay, in your mind—
the springing of spring.

Reality image

Dreamy; perfection,
represents folkish lifestyle—
dollish, delusion.

Sidewalk sights

Sidewalk flowers, Melbourne

Pops up all around,
as teen’s pimples; sans the mess,
sign of nature’s change

Give up, never

Australian Parliament House in Canberra

Unabashedly
governments stand; so can you—
hold your ground with pride.

Heatwave

Reflection of the afternoon sun

So bright it’s blurry,
all life is dazed and confused—
in spring comes summer.
