Autumn tree

Photo of a large deciduous tree full of brown leaves and some scattered on the ground.

In her golden age
flaunts her style confidently—
deciduous tree.

Sharing

Photo of a fern drowning on the bark of an old tree.

In symbiosis
sharing knowledge and life breath
Mum and epiphyte

Morning fog

Photo of a suburban street on a heavily foggy late-autumn morning.

No one’s wandering
a pall descends over head
winter is coming.

Strewn

Photo of large deciduous tree, with vibrant orange leaves on the tree as well as strewn on the ground.

Let a toddler eat,
they’ll share with the whole carpet;
trees dropping their leaves.

Words of wisdom

Photo of two trees, one deciduous and leafless and another a Norfolk Island pine.

Beauty does not last
deciduous tree explains;
young Norfolk pine nods.
