It comes to us all

Winter sunset in Canberra — Winter sunset, Canberra

Shedding vanity,
marking the passing of time—
winter skeletons.

The rising

Rise of the full moon, Canberra — Rise of a full moon, Canberra

At first light of dark,
as waning sun creeping low,
come the moon chasers.

So changeable

Winter sunset in Canberra

Unpredictable,
five hundred shades of surprise—
nature, as humans.

Moon’s day out

Full moon on a winter evening, Canberra

Sneaking from behind,
a kitten in a new house;
sunset moon through trees.

Unbiased

Empty light rail station, Canberra

In absence of rush
and raised voices, we notice—
nature shines for all.
