Alive

photo of a gumtree against a greyish, cloudy sky

Ancient shades of gum
dull sketch on a grey canvas
teeming with new life

Frozen

Grand old mother tree
captures nature’s history
rehoming fossils

Scale

close up photo of a large crack in the middle of a gumtree's trunk

Small split on a stump
a crack in the universe
for spiders on gums

Short sighted

photo of an open valley with heavy cloud cover and a mild fog in the distant mountain range

Funny, this climate
it’s all lush and green nearby
foggy horizon

Ubiquitous

sprawled branches of a gumtree with clouds in the background

Specks of milky dust
nestled between brown bristles
sun shines through branches
