Photo of a small plane’s propellers, as seen through the window of the plane.

All the world’s a plane
we’re strapped in a window seat
propelling through life.

I clamber uphill;
raising judgmental eyebrows,
rolling their eyes—trees

Home

Photo of the landscape of Wellington, New Zealand, at sunset, as seen from the window of a plane. — Wellington, New Zealand

We bicker for Mars,
fawn over the red planet;
sun kissed land is here.

Noncommittal

photo of private boats by the shore in Wellington, New Zealand.

Ships at the ready,
lined up on our city’s shores;
neutral hobbyists.

Bay watch

Day out by the bay:
when the blues overwhelm you
greenery brings calm.
