November 30, 2012

Driftwood piled up on the
abandoned beach, silence, peace.
Waves slide in and out.

November 29, 2012

White caps take the beach
from you and me, but leave it
for the birds and fish.

November 28, 2012

The beach is quiet,
except for crunch of gravel
under crows’ small feet.

November 27, 2012

Lighthouse in the pale
morning sun, welcomes boats in
to the little bay.

November 26, 2012

Oh why does packing
have to be such a damn pain?
I’m ready to move.

November 25, 2012

Sunshine on the beach,
while I run by and look at
the sea and the birds.

November 24, 2012

Busy folks shopping.
Parking lots crammed with cars, trucks.
It’s close to Christmas.

November 23, 2012

Aftermath of storm
leaves beach strewn with rocks and logs.
But dogs can play now.

November 22, 2012

The view from King George
Terrace is so beautiful,
my cares fade away.

November 21, 2012

Logs floating out to
sea, with no beach to rest on.
Wild winter weather.

November 20, 2012

Monkey picked oolong
tea, so delicate and fine.
A true morning treat.

November 19, 2012

Soaked through to the skin,
shivering with cold and damp.
A heroic walk.

November 18, 2012

Sea ducks swim towards

the shore, then they turn and take

flight in a V shape.

November 17, 2012

Busy streets filled with
bustling shoppers and parade
onlookers, Christmas.

November 16, 2012

Sunlight bursts through clouds,

lighting the ocean, mountains.

I relish the light.

November 15, 2012

Old logs wash up on

the beach filled with cast off things.

Wind carries my breath.

November 14, 2012

Dew on the long grass
with sunlight sparkling, beauty.
I walk by and smile.

November 13, 2012

Men and women with
robes and festive coloured hoods.
Convocation time.

November 12, 2012

Christmas cactus with
bright blooms, abundant, early.
Red and pink flowers.

November 11, 2012

I sit inside while
wind lashes the trees and house.
Poppies on my mind.

November 10, 2012

Yellow orchid with
magenta centres makes me
smile with memories.

November 9, 2012

White orchid with its
cascading blooms tinged with pink.
It lights up the room.

November 8, 2012

Crow flies up beside
me on a cold, green railing.
Then he glides away.

November 7, 2012

Dark clouds over the
ocean, but then the sun shines
as I walk and breath.

November 6, 2012

Seal rolling in the
calm seas off of Cattle Point.
Scaring up breakfast.

November 5, 2012

Heron annoyed by
battling seagulls and seaducks.
When will I catch lunch?

November 4, 2012

Waves clash together,
while the sun tries to peak through
thick clouds in the sky.

November 3, 2012

Trimming the pots to
ready them for the hot kiln.
Then I will glaze them.

November 2, 2012

Pale sunlight on sea,
barely visible through fog.
Seagulls, fog horns, waves.

November 1, 2012

Mysterious fog,
frightening jack-o-lanterns-
it’s not Hallowe’en?
