feel the blesings of the waters...



go down to the bays
and enjoy the dancing waves

be friends with wide seas
they give horizons

respect the odd tides for
warning messages

hear, see and feel 
the blessings of waters
they could be a sign of
incoming journeys

northerly short days...

northerly short days match southern long days of heat global yin and yang some short days of light promise perhaps longer days of warmth could be nigh a southern short day remembers when heat and fires were not real blessings #dailyhaikuprompt #haiku #micropoetry

little wattlebird - Boxing Day 2017



feisty and mouthy
a sprightly pocket full of
stripey feathers

commonly visits 
in our hot Christmas season
loves red banksias

insects and berries
even seeds are staple food
but sweet nectar wins

little wattlebird
boasts no glamorous plumage
yet thrilling dancer
