Photo of a garbage bin on the curb in an Auckland street. — This garbage bin in Auckland is significantly smaller than bins in Australia.

Smaller garbage bins,

fewer landfills in our towns;

wishful thought, perhaps.

Green pastures

Photo of the city of Wellington as seen from the top of a hill, standing near a sprawling tree which is visible in the top right of the photo.

Standing by a tree,
looking out at the buildings—
seeking green pastures.

Right of way

Photo of a big old tree slightly leaning towards a walking trail leading into the bush.

A tree in my way
I wondered swerving around;
my way was in its.

Farewell

Photo of the ocean, as seen from the road with clouds spread out, appearing as if to move left to right.

Windiest city:
clouds sweeping to fare me well,
dog chases the car.

Waiting

An art installation consisting of three chairs, two facing each other and one, the opposite direction. The Anne Frank memorial in Wellington. — Anne Frank memorial, Victoria Park, Wellington

She waits for her life:

for the chairs to be sat on;

music to begin.
