Uncanny parallels

a bud in a public garden bed, Launceston, Tasmania

Vulnerable bud—
exposed in a garden bed—
a heart locked away.

Beacon

Sky-bearing light house,

guiding wayward souls homeward;

motherly almost.

Healer

Beyond basic blues,
sustained shades of sheer soundness,
lapping by my feet.

Timely visitor

a photo that shook before it was properly captured, resulting in streaks of light against a dark sky

A picture shaken,
neon streaks across the sky—
ageing hands concede.

Grab that horizon

Just a step away—
alluring greener pastures:
adventure of life.
