Glittering...

Glittering 
Shards of ice 
Pierce 
A wind-scuffed 
Night sky

Meditation daily...

Meditation daily...
A month of
Committed
Small stones...
May the novelty become
A cleanser
A need...
Living with
Pauses in
Time...

Post summer holidays...

Post summer holidays...
New students in a new year...
A teacher begins again...
A few nerves and
Questions
Connect
For now...
May the answers
Strengthen
The bond...

Summer heat...

Summer heat...
When walking the minutes is
Weighted with
Hours...

I hear of floods...

I hear of floods...
Towns in northern New South Wales
Cut
Isolated by
Flood waters...
While on my southern peninsula
I see
Crisp blue skies
Humming with heat...
Holidaymakers flood the beaches...

Strange
We share the same summer...

Swirling winds of morning...

Swirling winds of morning...
Like a hungry
Petulant young bird
Demanding food of
A sleepy mother...

Wooden verandah...

Wooden verandah...
Summer midday heat...
Wicked mischief
Waits to ignite
Unwary bare feet into
An impromptu
Creative
Cha cha samba tango...

Sleepy summer morning...

Sleepy summer morning...
Many broken night shifts of humid sleep...
Like awakening
Locked
In dawn's shadow...

Rumbunctious winds...

Rumbunctious winds...
Flinging a melee of
Wild tango dances...
Simultaneously...

Summer sea winds...

Summer sea winds...
Healing for clammy tired skin...
Ethereal spring water for
The heated soul...

TV chatter...

TV chatter...
Just background noise...
My soul is busy
Riding the winds
Outside...

Stubborn twisting tendrils...

Stubborn twisting tendrils...
Always on a mission
To grow...
Prune them back today
But tomorrow
The wild spirit smiles
Again...

Moths on a night window...

Moths on a night window...
Like summer dust
On a dark adventure...

From the shadows of summer...

From the shadows of summer...
I dream on the sparkling light of
Summer waves...

Late...late on a summer's night...

Late...late on a summer's night...
In the stillness of the midnight hour
The body may seem weary
But the mind
Ticks on...

Fan blades whirring...

Fan blades whirring...
Casting a blessing of artificial
Cool
Fresh
Air...

Blessed by sunlight...

Blessed by sunlight...
Carresed by waves of warmth
Bathing in summer...

Beginnings...

Beginnings are shivery things...
Hesitant questions about
Foreign lands...
The mind feels a little afraid...
But the soul tosses
A mischievous
Wink...

Shafts of Coloured Fires...

Shafts of coloured fires
Splinter the dark skies
For a moment of wonder
But smiles
Linger into
The New Year

I have learnt today...

I have learnt today...
Respect the scaffolding of life
But never be afraid
To test your wings
Once in a while...
