Blooming

Close up photo of a tightly packed pink rose.

The welcome parade:
waking from hibernation,
roses bloom for spring.

Crashing

Photo of a beach with large rocks on its shore, from the view of a photographer sat on those rocks.

Hours by the sea shore;
waves crash on shimmering rocks:
silence in the mind.

Down Under

Photo of a typical landscape: dry grass, a deep blue sky with green hills in the background, a few gumtrees and kangaroos lazing on the grass.

Cloudless deep blue skies;
quintessential down under:
parched kangaroo grass.

Network

Photos of leafless trees in a garden, their limbs crossing each other.

A network of trees
supporting one another,
against human drills.

Pearls

Close up photo of a flowering wattle bush on the ground.

Scattered on the ground:
pearls of a precious lady;
wattle of this land.
