Hobbling in the cold
I watch cockatoos chew through
knobbly old branches

Autumn storms

the churning ocean - 
oystercatchers examine
the eroded shore

Beautiful colours
Soften the impending doom
Of raking up leaves

Dawn lights the lake  
Boats float with reflections 
Of autumn balloons

Autumn lullaby 🍂

Chilly evening 
Birdsong lullaby 
The sun falls asleep

Fate defied

Tiny yellow leaves  
Flutter inevitably 
No wait! They're weebills!

I’m a weebill I'm
a weebill I'm a weebill
Squeaks the proud weebill
