idly watching
bees in a banksia . . .
lunch break
Leanne Mumford
two beach stone-curlews
keeping stillness
with me
Irene McGuire
last cicada’s cry
scent of orange
where the old orchard stood
Meg Arnot
traffic jam–
three emus dancing
up the dirt road
Earl Livings
lifted
a spider limp from water
stamps its feet
Mira Walker
morning’s routine
sharing the shower
with a daddy-long-legs
Irene McGuire
