Hole

Photo of the pinkish sky just after sunset, visible through the arches of a building.

A hole in the wall,
a whole horizon peeks through—
someone notices.

Food machine

Close up photo of a puppy looking longingly at the photographer’s hand, which is out of the frame, but holding a piece of cracker.

Eyes full of longing
every dog yearns for some love
shaped like a biscuit.

Kid

Photo of a group of goats standing atop a mountain, feasting on tree saplings on the mountain.

Kids on a mountain,
snapping tree saplings in half;
mischievous is youth.

Glide

Photo of scattered clouds at sunrise on Swan Lake in Perth, with a swan gliding on it.

Scattering of clouds:
waters slice through the sunrise
lone swan glides along.

Mountains

Photo of a mountain range in the distance and lush green fields in the foreground.

Untouched villages;
hopeful scenes in the distance—
those pale blue mountains.
