Unmanned

Kaiteriteri beach in the Nelson-Tasman area, New Zealand

Sitting on the sea
distant enough to be free
an unmanned island

Urgent

Huka Falls, New Zealand

Gushing water falls

refuses to be settled

urgency of life

Blessed

Photo of a jade plant with a spider’s web cooling around it and the sunset streaming through it.

Holding on to hope
spider coexists with plants
blessed by the sunset

Soak

Photo of a tall gum tree, the golden colour of the sunset on it.
Gum tree at sunset

Soaking up sunshine
basking in the winter glow
gum trees in the park

Blurry

Photo of Auckland’s sky tower as seen through the branches of a leafless tree, well before sunrise in the dark of the morning and under city lights.

Streaks of city lights
silhouettes of leafless trees
blurry-eyed mornings
