Yellow

yellow pom pom blooms
crown silvery foliage
with sweet honey scent

A haiku and some winter wattle, drawn in an art class I ran today. Artists aged between 5 and 7ish.

Portraits in June

Week 23: Playing in a boat with the big kids. It wont be long before he is running around with them.
Week 24: Just woken up after a snuggle with Great Grandma (GG) Week 25: This boy is always checking out tyres - pram and stroller tyres, bike tyres at the shops... I gave in and let him get filthy with these big car tyres. Maybe a mechanic like his Uncle Dan? Week 26: A sandy, cheeky grin. We had fun camping at the beach with friends (and cousins).

Brisbane Winter

 

I love Brisbane in Winter;
yellow pompoms and silver foliage

blue skies

citrus in abundance
bare frangipani trees
birthday breakfasts
woolen snuggles
dappled light
reading in the afternoon sun, a rusty tin roof against the sky
orange cascade
snowflake flowers
party banners
pass the parcel on a picnic rug
gum blossum buds
wattle like baby corn

a sunny morning coffee spot

yellow gold

a local orchard, a shedding tree

glorious sunsets
