Dead feelings

How do the dead feel
when nature rises again
reclaiming its space

Siblings

Botanic gardens, Adelaide

Two lives from same roots,
balancing each other out—
go opposite ways.

Strength

Though big trees surround,
tiny sapling pushes through—
go bravely dear heart.

It lives

History survives—
a leaf falls on wet cement,
footprints etched in time.

Peace

Silent backwaters,
far away from humanness—
stench of plastic waste.
