Runneth over

Photo of a person holding a mug over their face. The mug has an image of R2D2, the fictional character, and the phrase, Just roll with it.

Mugs have good advice
if only we listened more
life runneth over

Cheers

Photo of a scene from the 2004 movie, Layer cake. In the scene, Daniel Craig, as XXXX, and his friend sit drinking whisky and XXXX says, “And you find peace with guns?” as seen on the subtitles.

It’s under control;
the stories we tell others
help us sleep at night.

Storyteller

a grave enclosed in metal railings, part of which is broken and scattered in the ground nearby — Cemetery, Melrose, South Australia

Crumbled bones, grave sites,
enduring the test of time—
tell stories of gore.

Maturity

Photo of the sun gleaming through a hanging row of wisteria.

Gadgets in small hands
piercingly painful picture
over exposure

Hold tight

brown autumn leaf stuck on chicken wire

Bound by elements
clinging dearly for life: leaf;
frail, but what a view!
