1/09/09

refusing the lift

down the trail

first day of spring


7/9/09

ravens

become black plastic

blowing in branches


silver lining

betrays moon

betrays cloud


10/9/09

café table

empty cup

time wasting


11/9/09

early walk

wind forces hands

into my jumper


park bench

forcing

haiku


pushing through

the forest

spring!


just now

my hangover left

grass of sunlight


12/09/09

finally warmer

outside than in-

bugs fill the house


after so long

one…then another!

lyrebirds by the trail


13.09.09

insect touch pause touch

from the page

to my hand


murmurs and bumps

above for company

wrist watch ticks


25.09.09

watching the mountains

waiting… everything

nothing


telling my wife

salt makes the lake pink

not knowing


amongst the stones

where the stream was

river reds


buckets in the shower

and wilting when it leaves

spring rain


through the water

flooding the paddock

only juncus


unseen and silent

where the clouds are

mountains from yesterday


3/8/09

wind ramp

cold mountain

me


5/8/09

staying to read

the walls

uni toilet


day of dread

morning sun

in the kitchen


tickling the windchime

to make it sing

still night


boarding house

full of fights

full moon


11/8/09

feathers rising

falling

rear vision mirror


15/8/09

sea lapping

the night pier

silent fishermen


cold watching

late leaves stay

oaks in wind


moonlit balcony

hammock shadow

swaying


smoking

white beard

yellowing


22/8/09

willy willy

of plum blossoms

suburb driving


sipping coffee

wind whips up

white caps


purple flowering

underbrush

butcher birds fight


27/8/09

empty tray

where the pizza was
