Illuminated

summertime sunset, Canberra

Halo in the sky,
picture of enlightenment;
zen is in nature.

Sun catchers

Cockatoos sitting on power lines during sunset, Canberra

Creatures of nature,
tiptoeing on humans’ wires,
navigating life.

And rises the moon

As the sunset flows,
flashing as cameras do,
on, the street lamps glow.

Morning rituals

Summertime sunrise, Canberra — Canberra’s sunrises are as glorious as sunsets

Rise every morning,
in search of light, clarity;
chase the horizon.

Summer light

Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra

As the sun comes out,
slumbering trees stretch awake,
clearing paleness; clouds.
