Crane

photo of a yellow crane as seen from below, against a vibrant, cloudless, blue sky

Mighty promises
dominating our skylines
craning for progress

Flowy

Photo of the Auckland Sky Tower flanked by tree canopy on either side.

Luscious, green, flowy;
The Sky Tower gets a skirt:
Auckland City trees.

Raincoats

Photo of the Auckland Sky Tower and the motorway traffic on a rainy, grey day as seen from the top floor of an apartment building.

The weather descends,
shrouds our city in grim hope,
still raincoats rejoice.

Away

Photo of the traffic on the Auckland motorway at sunset as seen from an over bridge.

Sunset show begins;
we’re all going away
as far as we can.

Appreciation

Photo of a single, budding flower hanging from a tree’s branch.

Puts herself out there;
who will cheer the lone flower,
tell her she is brave?
