Floored

image of an autumn tree, with a branch broken and on the ground

As gust against waves,
ever-changing autumn leaves,
sweep you off your feet.

Uncanny parallels

a bud in a public garden bed, Launceston, Tasmania

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

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.

Perspectives

the moon and partly red, partly green autumn trees along the bike path — Autumn comes to Canberra

No one values her—
on call, biker yells at air,
rides past autumn moon.
