We light up our trees
to recall how they once looked;
luminously green.
Blast from the past
Tag: nature
Shady
Constantly shadowed
by a canopy of green,
life wouldn’t be so bad.
Pause
As we strut through life,
tiny bushes brush our feet,
grounded, down to earth.
Resilience
Rain drops on petals,
character building features—
pimples on teen face.
Colours
Deep maroon on green
as first mangoes of summer,
Adelaide autumn.
