Oldies

Photo of a row of deciduous trees with golden-yellow leaves, outside a hospice.

Trees in transition:
shedding weight, going golden,
outside the hospice,

Social

Photo of a bee on a bunch of flowers.

Master networker;
busily the bee buzzes
flowers become friends.

Grow

Photo of the sunlight filtering through dense trees in a park.

Filtering through trees
sunlight shatters on the ground
life pipes up slowly

Slow life

photo of a main road in Auckland city on a cloudy Sunday morning, with two buses and very little traffic on the road

Winter storm rolls in;
sleepily our town awakes—
leaves fall unhurried.

Blush

Photo of a high rise building with the setting sun’s light reflecting on it.

Cold concrete blushes;
with a light kiss on the face
the sun bids farewell.
