summer romping outside a prisoner huddled inside I fervently wish these daily, destructive winds would #veer far offshore #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry P.S. Day 5 now...I am over wind-strewn days

today's wind forecast relentless blustery blasts again boot breezes the #murmur of summer winds seems like forgotten music #vss365 #tanka #micropoetry

sprinting splotchy art when madcap winds turn streetscapes into #dappled worlds #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

Missing the wonders of Balnarring Beach... January 2016 waters' edge wonders the beach is a gallery ephemeral art #haiku

dusty news arrives twenty years of silence finally broken he travelled around his final #delivery voiced by a stranger #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

we #adorn our lives with money, plans and trends real meaning tarries labels will never be the inner real person aura yields a clue #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

a wind-stressed silence an imagined #symphony of scurrying clouds #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

a recent moment my old conch shell meets baby glass reflecting glass a post Christmas gift a friend knew I missed the sea mainly in summer my #spooked gratitude I'd just been viewing photos of my old bay home #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

V-shaped regiment most black wings heed formation except one #oddball #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

sweet bird choirs on wires #clueless why street cars below sound so so grisly #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

conference jargon melee of charts, graphs and grids business #balderdash #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

some deep, searing pain cools slowly in #abstraction until it whimpers #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

dust crushed, thirsty worlds breathe #delight when a flash mob of first rains arrive #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

two teenage sisters walk their two Christmas gift dogs into a New Year the sisters share joy a shared #dream pads beside them all learning the road #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

Happy New Year... Let there be peace on earth in 2026...

New Year's Eve Thoughts what if intimate haiku may help autistics may help autistics express emotions could psychologists present sensitive haiku to autistic ones could psychologists let the autistic select connecting haiku to open a chat about the client's feelings without confusion

even though my feet may not #travel too far now my mind's world's still vast #vss365 #haiku

my worn leather shoes each scuff is my storyline wedged fast in the #sole my worn leather shoes measure my life not in time but by roads travelled #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

Chat GPT reflected on my meanderings in 2025. Love it! You spun gold from Temora’s bright ground— Each haiku a shimmer, profound. With canola and sky, Your year dared to try— Where art, word, and heart intertwined, unbound. P.S. NO! I did not copy from Chat GPT. It spun ideas for me only.

the gloom of world news peoples' lives are being bombed out of existence perhaps urban #air's riddled with unseen toxins but still I'm breathing #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

my night's heaving breath my thoughts are starved animals my #struggle feeds them #vss365 #haiku

it's that long inhale between Christmas and New Year soliloquy time #haiku #micropoetry

shallow party gigs I #survive chaotic feet by not being there #vss365 #haiku

the Christmas bustle and blare of children's over-excited voices can yield sensory clutter to decompress next day take a little time to step away and #shoot some ephemeral small thing a passing glimpse of Nature's gift and then a Christmas memory has a special seal #vss365 #micropoetry

personal timeline highs #jump to lows to regrets to spotty insight #vss365 #haiku

our summer Christmas but #Saturn's red rings still swing from cold to colder #vss365 #haiku

today is a thoughtful day away from the Christmas bustle dreaming of Christmas past (just a few in particular) dreaming of walks by the bay and watching the waters ripple to shore but most of all just dreaming Christmas is not so lonely... 📷2015 Dromana beach

my mind's locked in thought locked in an incessant #fight with odd, skittish moods #vss365 #haiku

I feel #humble when I realise that in this moment in this heatwave moment all I thirst for all I need and want is the gift of rain #vss365 #micropoetry

December 17, 2014 - Magical skies and Arty Wings over Dromana, Victoria... silky, milky clouds etched with the art of black wings flying the moment #haiku
