Skies

Leopard Tree Sky

Here is the deepest secret
nobody knows

Eucalyptus Sky




here is the root of the root
and the bud of the bud

Bougainvillea Sky




and the sky
of the sky

Fig Tree Sky




of a tree called life
which grows








Poinciana Tree Sky




higher than the soul can hope
or mind can hide

Jacaranda Tree Sky

and this is the wonder

Hurricane Palm Sky

that's keeping the stars apart

Gum Nut Sky
