Here and now

photo of a large gumtree in the middle of a busy state highway

Grooving to the now:
highway gumtree head bobbing;
breezy winter’s day.

Guard

Photo of a golden retriever sat in a room, looking at the camera, half of his body hidden behind the slightly-ajar door.

Guardian angel
dog sat by his human’s door,
eyes on the target.

Ignored

Close up photo of a big, flat mushroom tipped on its side.

Kicked onto the side,
stomped on by immature kids—
the homeless; fungi.

Flying colours

Photo of the sunset over the wing of a plane, as seen from the window seat.

Life of adventure:
chasing work and promotions;
sunsetting on air.

Watch out

Close up photo of a black cat looking sideways at the camera.

Infamous side eye:
mother’s warning to her child;
black cat’s to human.
