blessing the fleet—
a shag on the seawall
dries its wings
jb
pre-dawn light
a currawong dissolves
into fog
qy
spring garden
blue flicker
of the snake’s tongue
nb
mosquito
a stranger’s blood
on my hand
qy
I fill a hole
in the Pacific Ocean
white clouds
jb
alone
watching this wave
crash
qy
two tugs
on my trousers—
a ladybird
jb
winter lullaby
the baby reaches
for her breath
nb
dragonfly
again and again
to this rock

parched grass
the bird pulls a worm
from its shadow
nb
a bellbird sings
— the winter mountain
still unmoved
jb
a silken thread
from tree to tree
southbound plane
qy
watercolour—
how to finish it
now the egret’s gone
jb
moored yacht…
a young cormorant’s
unsteady flight
nb
tourist bus
a dropped watermelon
spatters the road
nb
sick neighbour
the bare branches
of her magnolia
qy
shiny hearse
a swirl of leaves
in its wake
jb
summer solstice
the pregnant belly dancer
shimmies
