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.

Finding your feet

Photo of a rocky hiking trail strewn with dried, yellowing, leaves.

Treading new pathways,
slipping into adventure:
dried leaves on old rocks.

Unseen

Photo of an empty street in Christchurch on a summer evening, the last dregs of sunset on the tops of still trees.

Quiet urban streets;
burrow-worthy, sun-kissed, trees—
city teems with life.
