afternoon kayak—
lake carp spotlit
in slanting sunbeams
Rohan Buettel
white mist
the clatter of deer hooves
across creek stones
Jennifer Sutherland
burnt-out eucalypt—
grey branches tangled
in the stars
Mark Miller
russet with rain
bark caught in the fork
of a eucalypt
Jan Dobb
she-oak . . .
a panting kelpie
in the wisp of shade
Gavin Austin
daybreak
morning glory hugs
the parched dam
