Leafless

Photo of a row of leafless trees in a park as seen through the window of a bus.

Long and lanky ghosts
standing still outside my bus
brittle and leafless

Magnificent

Photo of the setting sun just visible from the top of a hilly road, looking down on the ocean.

Magnificent sun
watching over our city
photographer clicks

Party

Photo of the sun set behind a row of leafless trees, as seen from across the street.

Sunsets winter nights
rows of trees and disco lights
gang’s here to party

Seeking

Photo of Rangitoto island as seen from the Takapuna beach. There’s a young boy walking on the shore and a couple of paddleboarders on the water on the distance.

We seek good fortunes
in the depths of our oceans
even at world’s edge.

Godly

Photo of the Wellington city and the ocean, as seen from the top floor of a building.

In smug godliness
I look down at skyscrapers
hundred floors above
