Nervous

All over the place—
walking ball of nervous wreck,
autumn afternoon.

Traveller

Screenshot of the flight route map on an international flight from Melbourne to Singapore.

Halfway round the world
spotting clouds from in the air—
minuscule human.

Storytellers

Near invisible,
life between the crevices—
spiders spin stories.

Musical

a hiking trail with tall, slender gum trees on either side of it

Natural talent,
as rhythmic whisper of gums,
percussionists.

Hi-vis

Alligator Gorge, Mount Remarkable national park, South Australia

Outstanding colours,
like spots on a Dalmatian—
gum trees in a gorge.
