Oasis
Waterhole of love
In the midst of boundless dune
Home of countless souls
Winter, summer, spring, or fall
All year round you stand tall...

Beyond the Waterhole
Wandering in the desert
profanity infused me
Each word like a scorpion
the curses on fire

The sand an abrasive
the cactus a warning
The sting of my words
—killing prophet and liar

(Dreamsleep: October, 2022)...

THE WATERHOLE

Two elephants merge
at the waterhole ~
entanglement of trunks

one emerges as
the gray-fountain leader ~
heavyweight of the dusty road

two images wane
in monotone gloaming ~
wispy clouds of dust

Caged Rainbow
A Northern Australian waterhole; 
here a trapper finds his goal.
One finch to surely catch my sight 
are Gouldian’s with colours bright.
Blacks, blues and greens; a purple breast. 
Yellow with white below the vest.
What shame I own wanting to show - 
that I had caged a living rainbow....

Sunset at the Waterhole
Fluffy white clouds in the smokey blue sky
Whilst eucalypts branch healthy and high,
Fuzzy reflections mirror and shade
Grandeur creations naturally made.
Gentle ripples boarder surrounds
Native low plants cluster close grounds,
Waterhole wonders here to behold
Breathtaking beautiful gold....

Wild Garden
Wild hedges of scarlet bottle brush
Ruby flowers catch my eye,
Busy bees kiss mauve daises
And a giant dragonfly…

Waterhole where birds are dipping
Flowing notes from natures fall,
Sunbeams sprays of light through nature
Eucalypts towering tall.

Spirits carved within the sandstone
Sacred spot where life evolved,
Peaceful place in paradise
Though mysteries remain unsolved....
