Adventure

a street with a one way sign pointing to the left side of the photo with a dense fog in the distance — Launceston, Tasmania

In our life’s journey,
just one way to go: unknown,
deep into the fog.

Hang in there

photo of a spider web on the outside of a glass panel, as seen from the inside

In cold crevices
holding on to warmth—briefly,
a network of lives.

Value

a view of the ocean on a sunny day — Tamar Island, Launceston, Tasmania

A world of glitter,
opening eyes, horizons—
more precious than gold.

Admittance

close up photo of a spiky plant

Rough edges, grim chasms—
existence is imperfect,
be out, believing.

Growing up

sunlight streaming from behind dense trees, a park Launceston, Tasmania — Launceston, Tasmania

Peek-a-boo plays sun,
shunting doubtful clouds aside,
bright new day at work.
