Gone are the days

Close up photo of a dandelion shedding

Another year fades
perennial pandemic
sheds human timelines

Do more

Photo of a tall tree among shorter bushes, with the sun shining from behind it.

Over achiever
out standing, the outlier
plant parent pressure

Experiences

Photo of a river flowing between rocks, with mountains around it. Cataract Gorge, Launcheston.

Gurgling in my ear
making outdoors great again
riverside whispers

Look and you’ll see

Close up photo of a hole in a tree stump where there’s a small stone with a smiley face drawn on it

Between the hollows
in dark deep corners of world
a smile enlightens

Survivor

Close up photo of a tree stump from below.

Flagpole stands its ground
even after the battle dies
stump survives winter
