Codependency

close up photo of a leaf on a fern

Codependent leaves
supporting one another—
dying together.

Green

photo of the sunlight filtering through the fronds of a fern tree

When you see the light
filter through layers of trees—
future is bright green.

Shiny

photo of the sun shining through the trees

Shining down on me,
tiny diamond in the sky
nestled among trees.

Judgement

photo of a steep hill and trees growing diagonally on it

I clamber uphill;
raising judgmental eyebrows,
rolling their eyes—trees

Photo of the landscape of Wellington, New Zealand, at sunset, as seen from the window of a plane. — Wellington, New Zealand

We bicker for Mars,
fawn over the red planet;
sun kissed land is here.
