Public treasure

photo of Rangitoto Island as seen from behind a canopy of tree on Takapuna Beach — Rangitoto Island, Auckland

Hiding in plain sight
treasures we already own,
yet forget: mountains.

Lengthy

Screenshot

Stretching miles along
exotic island coastline;
goodbyes to loved ones.

No silver lining

Photo of wispy clouds against a blue sky, as seen through the window of a plane. The plane’s wing is visible.

Fleeting characters:
passers by in my story—
clouds of all sizes.

Growth

The city of Melbourne as seen from the window of a plane. — City of Melbourne, Australia

Ever expanding;
a city that never sleeps—
concerning waistline.

Brew

Photo of the sky just after sunset, orange swirling into dark, grey clouds.

Another sunset—
like a straw clouds swirl around,
a cocktail brewing.
