See?

Royal Botanical Garden, Sydney

Hidden in plain sight,
as the middle child, ignored,
blossom in a bush.

Plump and obvious

The Royal Botanical Gardens, Sydney

Pining for nurture,
hangs such succulent despair;
unnourished nature.

Distractions

Royal Botanical Gardens, Sydney

Cruel world forgets—
hyper-focused on the self,
that others exist.

Imprints

Bamboo trees at the Royal Botanical Gardens, Sydney — Bamboo trees, Royal Botanical Gardens, Sydney

Scrawled in history,
engraved into memory,
the human footprint.

Seasonal feels

The Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney

Dripping icicles;
chilly shards run down my spine—
my whiskey blossoms.
