Wild walk

a path leading into a forest surrounded by trees

Wave of moist gum breeze
engulfs, tackles me to ground
into the calm wild.

Downer

photo of the sky, a tree, and neibour's fence as seen from behind a glass window at dusk

Curtained existence
disassembled, sun deprived,
locked down in winter.

Elder

photo of a gumtree with a sweet light reflecting in its peeling bark

Illuminated
a sage old village leader
skin-peeling gumtree.

Sun kissed

army of leafless trees along the footpath

Rising from the dead,
barren biting winter cold,
sun kissed, spring barks shine

Locked down

photo of a single, leafless tree on a sidewalk

Waves cheery hello
single social bubble bud
my neighbourhood tree.
