Poem Category: Miscellaneous

Ceiling fan
finding just bedroom heat
to twirl and twirl.

Front verandah
following the students past
the old girl’s wave.

White rapids
roaring at the boulders
before the river falls.

First Gum leaf
on the knotty branch
tickling the breeze.

Spider
only the male suitor
understanding her web.

Dance auditions
from the dark seats a thank-you
just that once.

Sea-front cafe’
waiting for friends
two moons approach.

Zen garden
turn after turn silence
of the green water-wheel.

School picnic
our walk downhill
to join the games of the others.

Fewer migrating geese
out of the storm
out of the rainbow.
