Moonshine

photo of the full moon at night, with silhouettes of trees and roofs

Polar opposite—
counterbalancing solar,
lights up the night sky.

New ride

white bicycle leaning against the railing overlooking the ocean, Henley Beach, Adelaide — Long ride to Henley Beach, Adelaide

A road to the coast—
laying out the red carpet,
welcoming new wheels

Solo

photo of the almost full moon rising over a 1950s brick house

All brick and mortar,
coming home to an echo—
with a moon above.

Growing

a cactus plant, with an arm growing upwards from a broken stump that had been growing sideways.

A cactus seeks light
reprioritises path—
pivotal moments.

Dropped

a lush green lawn with a tree and its yellow leaves strewn fallen and strewn across the lawn

Cast away unloved
a child’s toy loses its sheen—
autumn leaves let go.
