the last cicada
clears his throat

all the colours
of Namatjira

carpet the earth
a birthing forest

outside the lines

hummingbird moths
around native foxgloves
the sea’s soft murmur

she speaks of a friend
taken beyond

held in a mist
of white butterflies
the scent of lavender

controlled burning
in Spring stillness
hazy horizons

leaving time behind
as he goes into care
all dad’s clocks

rippled sandstone
lapping an ancient shore
an ancient moon

learning the lake’s every shiver spring cygnets

spring snow—
a drift of newborn lambs
in the paddocks

white butterflies
a dance
through delphiniums

delphiniums bend
under the weight
of purple

daffodil buds
in a crystal vase
morning frost
