Close up photo of a yellow and purple flower in a bush.

Leads by example:
the flower first to blossom
amidst bush of buds.

Silence

Photo of an empty train station with a heavy fog hanging in the distance.

Small town existence
the silence of the morning
echoes through the fog.

High visibility

Close up photo of the flowers of an aloe plant.

Spiky, on my path,
polished in hi-vis orange;
the healer, aloe.

Host

Close up photo of a spider web between a leaves of a cactus plant.

Spider makes her home
between the grooves of cactus—
house plant becomes host.

Cosy

Close up photo of the latte art on a coffee in a keep cup.

Down an alleyway;
cold mornings and coffee shops
warm hug in a mug.
