Theatre

Photo of a child sat on the floor of at the train station, watching a group of Christmas carol singers, while the child’s mother stands beside him.

Joy of theatre
worth sitting on the floor for—
mum’s errands can wait.

Broken

Close up photo of exposed tree roots.

Tangled root systems,
complex web of emotions;
exposed when life breaks.

Felled

photo of a tree, its trunk leaning to one side

Seeking a lover
mighty nature reaches out—
humans cut it back.

Teamwork

Photo of the port side of a tall ship with the ropes alongside it.

Aboard a tall ship—
where our egos go to die;
bonds are made stronger.

Humans

Photo of a still water body in the Auckland zoo with a small, lake kayak on it. — A duck enclosure and a fake kayak, Auckland zoo.

We’re barely afloat
a kayak on a still lake
chaos in our minds
