school’s out all summer cicadas droning
Ingrid Baluchi
school oval
swept clear of kids
— one plover
Duncan Richardson
chill wind…
empty swings
twitch in the breeze
Nathalie Buckland
manicured park
the child seeks out
its untamed edges
Lyn Reeves
the rattle
in a boy’s pocket
two white pebbles
Marilyn Humbert
deep gully
the tumble of water
into shadows
Lorraine Haig
Echidna Tracks
