Flight

Photo of the sunset on a bed of clouds in the horizon, as seen from a plane.

Flying at sunset
I sleep amongst the heavens—
a pillow of clouds.

Expecting

Close up photo of a bunch of purple flowers in the foreground with a cloudy sky in the background.

Flowers in waiting;
fist rain drops of the season
drifting overhead.

Joy

Photo of the sun filtering through the branches of a pepper tree, as seen from below.

Raining down blessings,
brightening up pepper trees—
summertime sunshine.

Paint

photo of jacaranda trees in full bloom with the Opera House in the background

Drops of purple paint;
jacarandas in the rain—
on a bleak canvas.

Lightseeker

Reflection of the photographer and the Qantas signboard on an airport glass wall, with a plane on the tarmac outside visible through the glass, and the strap of a backpack on the foreground.

Buzzing airport lights;
seeking a different high,
solo traveller.
