early summer—
a swimmer emerges
from morning
Sandra Simpson
on the pier
scattering tears and ashes
. . . the wind dies
Ryan Stone
old garments
the comforting drift
of a handmade shawl
Beverley George
eucalypt scent
on crisp cold air
memories of home
Rowan P. Ogeil
bushland fog
drifting through bluegums
the ghost of Ned Kelly
Jennifer Sutherland
crowning
the echidna’s spines
morning dew
Tom Staudt
Echidna Tracks
